Ravens' Justice Hill: May see increased role down stretch

Hill had five carries for 23 yards Sunday against the Jaguars.

Despite the pedestrian stat line, Hill finds himself thrust back onto the fantasy radar going forward in light of Keaton Mitchell suffering a season-ending left knee injury. Mitchell tore his ACL on Sunday night, and Hill now projects to see his role tick up as the primary complement to Gus Edwards. In the first nine weeks of the season, which is when Mitchell was either on IR or had a minimal role, Hill averaged 7.3 carries for 31.4 yards to go with 1.9 receptions for 8.4 yards. Hill is unlikely to see a massive jump in production, but his usage should make him a potential streaming option down the stretch in deeper formats. The Ravens have a tough matchup upcoming, though, as they'll head west to face the 49ers on Christmas night.
