Overview
- Agent Drew Rosenhaus said on Friday that he does not expect Hill to sign with a team before the 2026 regular season.
- Rosenhaus said Hill sent video of him running hills and that the footage looked strong while Hill himself told his agent he still has work to do and is not ready to return.
- Rosenhaus said he is not pressuring Hill and that he believes Hill can play this season but that the timing is uncertain.
- Recent veteran signings such as Stefon Diggs and Keenan Allen have reduced early openings for receivers, increasing the chance Hill waits to join a clear playoff contender or becomes a midseason pickup.
- Hill is a former All-Pro coming off a severe knee injury from Sept. 29, 2025, and his decision to wait for full health could reshuffle in-season roster plans for teams chasing a Super Bowl run.
