When the Green Bay Packers selected running back Kylin Hill in the seventh round, many analysts believed they had landed one of the steals of the 2021 NFL Draft.
So far, Hill is showing why the pick received so much praise.
Hill has been impressive this summer with two strong performances in the preseason.
After two weeks of the preseason, Hill is Pro Football Focus’ highest-graded rookie running back. He has a grade of 82.8.
Hill’s rushing total in the opening preseason game was disappointing as he finished with minus-two yards from five carries, but the blocking up front wasn’t good enough.
