Hill cleared waivers and is re-signing with the Chargers' practice squad, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Chargers waived Hill on Tuesday, but they signed him to their practice squad Saturday after he cleared waivers. The 2020 seventh-round pick saw minimal playing time across the first six weeks of the season, but Los Angeles is only carrying five wideouts on its active roster, so he will be a likely candidate to be promoted if one of them goes down with an injury.

Hill was waived by the Chargers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The 2020 seventh-rounder saw minimal playing time across the first six weeks of the season but will be let go after Andre Roberts signed with the Chargers on Thursday. Hill hauled in all three of his targets for 30 yards to begin the season.

Hill caught all three of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Hill caught three passes despite playing just seven offensive snaps, ceding the majority of the backup wide receiver snaps to Josh Palmer and Jalen Guyton. The second-year wideout caught seven passes total in all of 2020 so while the low snap count indicates a likely regression in terms of targets, it's nice to see Hill make good with his limited opportunities.

Hill (undisclosed) returned to practice Tuesday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Chargers had been extra cautious with a number of skill-position players this preseason, including Hill, but considering no information was released regarding the severity of the injury, it's safe to assume the second-year returner won't be hindered in the future. The surprising waive of Tyron Johnson leaves Hill as the team's No. 5 wide receiver on the depth chart, although he'll probably see more usage as the Chargers' punt returner.

Hill was sidelined at Wednesday's practice for an undisclosed reason, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hill is currently competing for a special teams and depth receiving role with the Chargers. While it is unclear what he is specifically dealing with, a quick return to camp would be beneficial for his chances.

Hill caught four of seven targets for 18 yards and gained one yard on his lone carry in Sunday's 15-10 preseason loss to the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Hill got lots of run in this exhibition contest, but a combination of conservative quarterback play and tight defensive coverage resulted in minimal gains from his five touches. The speedy wideout ran back one kick and one punt return, a role he is likely to serve again this season for the Chargers. Next up are the Seahawks on Saturday for Week 3 of the preseason.

Hill finished his rookie season with seven receptions on 11 targets for 73 yards across 15 games.

EDGE Analysis

Hill also fielded a handful of special-teams returns throughout the season, accumulating 90 total return yards, but it was hardly a banner year for the 2020 seventh-round pick. The 23-year-old did see the fifth-most snaps of any Chargers wide receiver, but Hill was grossly outpaced by Jalen Guyton, who beat him out for the No. 3 role to start the season, and later by undrafted free agent Tyron Johnson, who became a more prominent factor toward the end of the campaign. Considering the lack of significant draft capital invested in Hill, the prospects of the Ohio State product emerging as a quality fantasy candidate appear bleak entering the offseason.

Hill caught his only target for seven yards during Sunday's 45-0 loss to the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Hill's nine offensive snaps during Sunday's contest were the most significant playing time he's seen since Week 5, but it was still just a minor offensive role. The 23-year-old has three catches for 30 yards in 11 games this season.

Hill (hip) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Hill missed this past Sunday's win over the Jaguars due to this hip injury, but it appears the rookie has shaken off the issue and will be available for this Sunday's divisional tilt against Denver. He's still looking to establish chemistry with quarterback Justin Herbert, as Hill's six targets over four games with the fellow rookie have translated into just two receptions for 23 yards and no touchdowns.

Hill (hip) is listed as inactive heading into Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

The seventh-round rookie seemingly suffered the injury during the practice week, as he was a non-participant Thursday after logging a full session Wednesday. Hill was unable to recover in time for Sunday's tilt with Jacksonville, meaning that Tyron Johnson will be promoted to the No. 4 slot in Los Angeles' receiving corps. Hill's absence also means that Joe Reed may be in the mix for snaps at kick returner.
