Hill carried seven times for 34 yards in Sunday's 27-16 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: The seven carries more than doubled Hill's output (three) from the Ravens' previous six games combined. Hill had moved almost exclusively into a full-time special-teams role after J.K. Dobbins returned from injured reserve Week 14, but Hill as well as Kenyan Drake were able to reclaim roles on offense in the regular-season finale while Dobbins was inactive for maintenance purposes. Hill and Drake then finished the afternoon as the Ravens' lone healthy backs, as fill-in starter Gus Edwards exited early with a concussion. Even if Edwards is unable to clear the concussion protocol prior to Sunday's rematch with the Bengals in the wild-card round, neither Hill nor Drake projects to retain the roles they enjoyed Week 18 with Dobbins set to return to the lineup while reclaiming duties as the Ravens' clear lead back. Hill finished the regular season with 49 carries for 262 yards to go with 12 catches for 58 yards over his 15 appearances.

Hill rushed once for three yards and caught his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 13-3 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: Hill, who received 24 offensive snaps this past weekend in Cleveland, saw the same amount of plays as fellow running back J.K. Dobbins (24) and also out-snapped Gus Edwards (11). The 25-year-old will likely continue splitting backfield reps when Baltimore hosts the Falcons on Saturday.
Dec 20, 2022 1:13 PM EST
Justice Hill failed to record a single touch in Sunday's 16-14 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Hill played just two of the Ravens' 61 offensive snaps as the No. 4 running back behind J.K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards and Kenyan Drake. The 25-year-old saw most of his playing time on special teams, returning two kickoffs for 39 total yards. With such limited opportunities out of the backfield, Hill should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Ravens visit the Browns in Week 15.
Dec 13, 2022 8:07 PM EST
Hill had one carry for two yards and added two receptions for four yards Sunday against the Broncos.
Analysis: Hill and Gus Edwards played the same number of snaps (17) but Edwards was more involved with six carries. Meanwhile, Kenyan Drake played the most snaps among the Ravens running backs and led the backfield with seven rushes for 29 yards. The offense was facing a tough matchup, but the fact remains that the team mustered just 281 total yards with Tyler Huntley at quarterback. If Jackson is out Sunday against the Steelers, the offense could be hemmed in once again.
Dec 6, 2022 7:38 AM EST
Hill carried the ball once for three yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Hill operated as the Ravens' No. 3 running back with Gus Edwards active for the contest. The 25-year-old played just 14 of Baltimore's 72 offensive snaps, behind Edwards (36) and Kenyan Drake (18). With Edwards running as the clear lead back and J.K. Dobbins (knee) nearing his return from injured reserve, it stands to reason that Hill's role in the running back rotation is bound to take a major hit going forward. The veteran should remain off the fantasy radar when the Ravens host the Broncos in Week 13.
Nov 29, 2022 8:18 PM EST
Hill rushed seven times for 30 yards and caught all three of his targets for eight yards in Sunday's 13-3 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Hill played 41 percent of the Ravens' offensive snaps in the contest, while fellow running back Kenyan Drake played 51 percent of snaps. With Gus Edwards (hamstring/knee) sidelined, Hill saw a bump in his usage. However, the 25-year-old will likely see his role diminish when both Edwards and J.K. Dobbins (knee) make there way back on the field. Hill will likely be difficult to trust when the Ravens visit the Jaguars in Week 12.
Nov 23, 2022 5:51 AM EST
Hill had four carries for 11 yards in Monday's win over the Saints and added one catch for eight yards.
Analysis: Even with Gus Edwards (hamstring) out, Hill's role didn't see an increase in Week 9. Kenyan Drake dominated the backfield work as he played 68 percent of the snaps and converted that into 24 carries for 93 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Hill's role appears tenuous even with J.K. Dobbins on the shelf, and if Edwards is ready to play after the bye, Hill's role could diminish further.
Nov 8, 2022 8:34 AM EST
Hill rushed four times for 28 yards and wasn't targeted in Thursday's 27-22 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Hill looked spry in limited action, but Kenyan Drake was the primary beneficiary of Gus Edwards' departure due to a hamstring injury, as Drake turned seven carries and four targets into 67 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. With J.K. Dobbins (knee) on IR, Hill could step into a larger role alongside Drake if Edwards isn't ready to return in Week 9 against the Saints.
Oct 28, 2022 9:38 AM EST
Hill had five carries for 26 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's win over the Browns.
Analysis: Hill got back in the fold after missing two games with a hamstring injury. The Ravens also got Gus Edwards back from a knee injury and went with a committee approach as all Hill, Edwards, and Kenyan Drake reached played between 27 and 36 percent of the snaps. Hill had a fumble late in the game that could have proved costly but was otherwise effective on a per-carry basis. The Ravens face the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football in Week 8.
Oct 24, 2022 2:22 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Browns.
Analysis: Hill's fully healthy, while fellow running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) has been ruled out. If Baltimore doesn't activate Gus Edwards (knee) from the PUP list before Sunday, Hill would be in line for a prominent backfield role alongside Kenyan Drake and Mike Davis.
Oct 21, 2022 12:44 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Hill apparently is ready to return after missing two games, while fellow running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) now appears uncertain for the upcoming matchup with Cleveland. The Ravens relied on Kenyan Drake after Dobbins left a Week 6 loss to the Giants, and they could have Gus Edwards (knee) coming off the PUP list soon. Prior to his hamstring injury, Hill had emerged ahead of Drake as the No. 2 back behind Dobbins.
Oct 19, 2022 2:22 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: With Hill out, look for Kenyan Drake to log added change-of-pace work behind J.K. Dobbins on Sunday, with Mike Davis also in reserve. Hill will target a potential return to action when the Ravens host the Browns in Week 7.
Oct 16, 2022 8:49 AM EST
Hill (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Though Hill was able to practice in a limited fashion this week, he's trending toward being inactive Sunday. If he's out, Kenyan Drake would be a candidate to log added change-of-pace work behind J.K. Dobbins, with Mike Davis in reserve. Moreover, it's also possible that Gus Edwards (knee) could be activated from the PUP list in advance of Week 6 action.
Oct 14, 2022 12:30 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: The limited showing in practice marked Hill's first on-field activity since he injured his hamstring in the fourth quarter of an Oct. 2 loss to the Bills. Prior to getting hurt, Hill had been explosive in his complementary role out of the Baltimore backfield, averaging 6.6 yards on 19 carries. Despite his success through the first four weeks, Hill could soon find himself behind both top back J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards (knee) on the depth chart. Edwards was designated for return from the PUP list Oct. 5 and could be cleared to make his season debut as soon as this Sunday against the Giants if the Ravens are comfortable with the health of his surgically repaired knee.
Oct 13, 2022 1:45 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: This marks the running back's first practice participation since injuring his hamstring in the fourth quarter of the Ravens' Week 4 loss to the Bills. Hill thus has a chance to return to action Sunday against the Giants, but he'll presumably need to get at least one full practice under his belt in order to avoid a Week 6 injury designation.
Oct 13, 2022 12:01 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) is not practicing Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hill sat out Week 5's win over Cincinnati due to a hamstring issue, and he's not yet ready to retake the practice field. He will only have two more chances to increase his activity ahead of Sunday's contest against the Giants. With Gus Edwards (knee) still on the PUP list, but back at practice, Kenyan Drake and Mike Davis are currently next on the depth chart behind J.K. Dobbins.
Oct 12, 2022 11:16 AM EST
Hill (hamstring) won't play Sunday versus the Bengals.
Analysis: Hill emerged from Week 4 with a hamstring issue that kept him out of practice Wednesday through Friday. On Monday, coach John Harbaugh noted Hill was expected to miss some time, and indeed the reserve running back will log at least one DNP. If the Ravens don't activate Gus Edwards (knee) from the reserve/PUP list ahead of Sunday's game, Mike Davis and Kenyan Drake will serve as the options behind lead runner J.K. Dobbins.
Oct 7, 2022 12:07 PM EST
Hill (hamstring) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Analysis: While playing greater than a third of the snaps in both of the past two weeks and combining for 105 yards on 14 carries to go with two receptions for 12 yards in those contests, Hill has emerged as the top complement to J.K. Dobbins (chest), who made his season debut Week 3. After opening the week as a limited participant in practice, Dobbins looks on track to reprise his role as the Ravens' top back once again Sunday against the Bengals, but Hill's availability is less certain. Hill has now missed two straight practices to begin the week, so he'll almost certainly need to get back on the field in some capacity Friday to have a shot at suiting up versus Cincinnati. Mike Davis and Kenyan Drake are next up for work behind Dobbins, assuming the Ravens don't elect to immediately activate Gus Edwards (knee) from the PUP list following his return to practice this week.
Oct 6, 2022 11:35 AM EST
Hill (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Coach John Harbaugh said Monday that he doesn't believe Hill suffered a long-term injury, though the running back is expected to miss some time. He was productive off the bench behind J.K. Dobbins the past two weeks, taking 14 carries for 105 yards against the Patriots and Bills. The Ravens have Mike Davis and Kenyan Drake for depth while Hill is unavailable.
Oct 5, 2022 11:23 AM EST
Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Hill (hamstring) didn't suffer a long-term injury, but the running back will still miss some time, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hill rushed eight times for 45 yards before exiting Sunday's loss to the Bills. While the backup running back doesn't have a return timetable yet, Harbaugh said the teams feels like it "dodged a bullet." In Hill's absence, Mike Davis is expected to garner an increased role behind J.K. Dobbins, who continues to work his way back to a full workload following a devastating lower-body injury. The Ravens also may get Gus Edwards (knee) back soon, who's eligible to be activated off the PUP list ahead of Week 5.
