Hill (foot), who is on IR, has been ruled out for Sunday's wild-card matchup against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Hill landed on IR in early December due to a foot injury. He had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday but isn't ready to return to game action. Hill played a meaningful role in Carolina's secondary early in the campaign, but he hasn't logged a defensive snap -- largely due to injuries -- since joining the Buccaneers in mid-November.

Hill (foot) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran cornerback will now be able to practice with the team and is eligible to be activated to the 53-man roster before Sunday's wild-card game against the Commanders. If he doesn't garner active status versus Washington, Hill would still be eligible to return to action anytime over the next 21 days, if the Buccaneers remain successful in the playoffs.

Hill (foot/knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill, who has played just six special-teams snaps since being signed to the Buccaneers' active roster Nov. 18, is now set to miss at least the team's next four games after being placed on IR on Friday. The veteran cornerback will be eligible to return for Tampa Bay's regular-season finale against the Saints on Jan. 5.

Hill (foot/knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill has played through foot and knee injuries over the Bucs' last two games, but he will be sidelined for Sunday's contest. Hill's absence won't affect Tampa Bay's secondary much, as his snaps have been limited to special teams.

Hill (ankle/foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill logged a limited practice session Friday after missing the first two sessions of the week. The cornerback joined the Buccaneers' practice squad in October before moving up the active roster in November. After spending the first six games of 2024 with the Panthers, he'll now have a chance to suit up against his former team.

Hill (ankle/foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
Hill opened the week with consecutive DNPs, but he's given himself a chance to play against his former team after logging a limited practice Friday. Hill played in the Panthers' first six games of the regular season and logged 32 tackles (20 solo) and one pass defense, but he was released by Carolina on Oct.18.

Hill (ankle/foot) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Hill missed the Bucs' four regular-season games prior to the Week 11 bye due to an ankle injury. He played through the injury during the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants this past Sunday, though he played just three snaps on special teams and did not record a tackle. He is now dealing with an additional injury to his foot, and he'll have to increase his practice participation over the next two days in order to have a chance at playing against the Panthers on Sunday.

Hill (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Hill opened the week as a DNP on Wednesday due to an ankle injury, but he finished with consecutive limited practices Thursday and Friday. He'll give the Buccaneers some depth in the secondary Sunday against rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers and new starting quarterback Tommy DeVito.

Hill (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old began the Buccaneers' week of practice with a DNP but upgraded to limited sessions Thursday and Friday, indicating he could be on track to play Sunday. If Hill is able to suit up for the Week 12 matchup in New York, he'll likely see increased playing time as one of Tampa Bay's top rotational slot corners, especially with Tykee Smith (knee) listed as doubtful.

Hill (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Hill opened the week as a DNP on Wednesday due to an ankle injury, but the 33-year-old corner was able to go through Thursday's session in a limited capacity. He'll have one more chance Friday to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Giants.
