Cardinals' Trysten Hill: Placed on IR
Rotowire
The Cardinals placed Hill (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Hill was carted off the field during the Cardinals' Week 16 loss to Tampa Bay, but he was deemed day-to-day after being diagnosed with a knee sprain. It's unclear if the issue worsened since the diagnosis, or Arizona is simply being cautious. Either way, Hill will be sidelined for the remainder of the 2022 campaign, as Arizona has already been eliminated from the playoffs. He'll end the season with 13 total appearances (seven with Arizona and six with Dallas), totaling 12 tackles and one sack across 224 defensive snaps.

Cardinals' Trysten Hill: Deemed day-to-day with sprain
Rotowire
Hill is considered day-to-day after suffering a knee sprain during Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Hill, who was carted off the field in the Week 16 matchup against Tampa Bay due to an apparent knee injury, has since been listed as day-to-day with what has been revealed as just a knee sprain. The 24-year-old's activity levels in practice throughout the upcoming week should provide further clarification regarding his Week 17 availability versus Atlanta.
Hill has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals due to a knee injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Hill recorded one tackle before being carted off the field in the first half with a knee injury. In his absence, Michael Dogbe is a candidate for increased snaps behind J.J. Watt, Leki Fotu and Jonathan Ledbetter.

Cowboys' Trysten Hill: Reinstated after absnece
Rotowire
Hill was reinstated Friday after serving a one-game suspension, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Hill had his original two-game suspension reduced to one game, which he served during Thursday's victory over New Orleans. He'll now be able to return for a Week 14 matchup at Washington, and he should serve as key member of the Cowboys defensive line.
The NFL suspended Hill for two games without pay for violations of the league's unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct rules following the Cowboys' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Raiders, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hill was assessed the suspension after he was seen punching Raiders offensive guard John Simpson following the Cowboys' 36-33 overtime loss. The defensive tackle plans to appeal the league's decision, so he could still play Thursday against the Saints if his appeal isn't heard until after that contest. Through three appearances this season, Hill has tallied eight tackles (five solo).

Cowboys' Trysten Hill: Returns to practice
Rotowire
Hill (knee) returned to practice Monday, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Hill has spent the first several weeks of the season on the PUP list while recovering from a torn ACL he suffered last October, but he's now been cleared to return to practice. It's not yet clear whether he'll have enough time to get up to speed prior to Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.

Cowboys' Trysten Hill: Could be back this week
Rotowire
Hill (knee) could be ready to start practicing this week, Cowboys VP Stephen Jones said Monday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Hill has spent the entire season up to this point on the PUP list while rehabbing a torn ACL he suffered last October. The defensive tackle will likely need some time to get back up to speed once he returns to practice, so Hill remains unlikely to suit up against the Vikings in Week 8, though no definitive word has come down on that front.

Cowboys' Trysten Hill: Torn ACL feared
Rotowire
Hill is believed to have suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during Sunday's 37-34 win over the Giants, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Hill will undergo an MRI on Tuesday to confirm these results, and if true, he'll be shut down for the rest of the season. It would be yet another hit to the Cowboys, which already have placed nine starters on IR this year. Antwaun Woods is expected to bump into a starter's role if Hill's diagnosis is confirmed.

Cowboys' Trysten Hill: Heading to Big D
Rotowire
The Cowboys selected Hill in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft, 58th overall.
Dallas did well to bolster the middle of its defensive line by nabbing Hill out of Central Florida with its first pick of the draft. Hill is a space-eater at 6-foot-3 and 308 pounds with explosive lower-body strength. He should fit in well with Maliek Collins and Tyrone Crawford in Dallas' front.
