Packers' Kylin Hill: Returning to practice

The Packers designated Hill (knee) for return from the PUP list Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

The transaction now opens a 21-day window wherein the Packers can monitor Hill at practice, and he's eligible to be added to the 53-man roster at any point during that three-week span. The second-year player, who is working his way back from a torn ACL, could challenge Patrick Taylor for the No. 3 backfield role when back to full form. Hill may also be a candidate to handle kick-return duties for Green Bay.
