Troy Hill

The veteran corner was traded back to the Rams a little more than a year after signing a two-year, $9 million contract with the Browns during the 2021 offseason. He again will slot in as a starting corner opposite Jalen Ramsey. Hill didn't light up the stat sheet in his one season with the Browns and lost the last four games of the season due to a knee injury, but he'll try and recreate the magic of 2020's 77-tackle, three-interception campaign in his return to Los Angeles.

A season-ending rib injury to Aqib Talib in October opened the door for Hill to start nine games in 2019, and he responded with a career-high 43 tackles and 12th-ranked Pro Football Focus grade among cornerbacks. The grade is all the more impressive considering Hill's underwhelming athleticism and small stature (5-11, 183). He should see a lot of throws come his way this season starting opposite shutdown corner Jalen Ramsey, which positions Hill to rack up a lot of tackles and passes defensed. Still, 2019 third-round selection David Long will be pushing for additional playing time, and Hill hasn't been a reliable fantasy producer over the past four seasons with the Rams.

Hill started a career-high seven games last season and recorded 34 tackles (29 solo), two interceptions and five passes defensed. He's projected to slot into a backup role with Aqib Talib and Marcus Peters starting at cornerback, and Nickell Robey-Coleman serving as the primary nickle corner. However, Hill proved he can fill in and start last season, and his new two-year contract proves the team is confident in his abilities. He just shouldn't be viewed as a reliable fantasy asset entering the 2019 season.
