24 Holton Hill DB

Hill (foot) was waived from reserve/injured Tuesday.

Hill will now have an opportunity to join another squad if he can prove the foot ailment he suffered a month ago is a thing of the past.

Hill (foot) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

The Vikings received a roster exemption for the 23-year-old Saturday with no explanation for the move, but he's now been moved to injured reserve. Hill hasn't seen the field since Week 4 and will now be sidelined for at least the next three games, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined.

Hill (foot) was placed on the exempt/commissioner permission list Saturday.

The Vikings receive a roster exemption due to the move, though it remains unclear why they were allowed to do so. Hill was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions due to the foot issue and hasn't seen the field since Week 4. There's no indication of when the 23-year-old will return to the active roster.

Hill (foot) won't play Sunday against the Lions, Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune reports.

Hill hasn't dressed since Week 4 and was unable to practice this week. He'll hope to heal up in time to face the Bears in Week 10, and the cornerback will have the benefit of an extra day to get healthy since that game is scheduled to be on Monday Night Football.

Hill (foot) was a non-participant during the Vikings' practice session Thursday.

Hill hasn't suited up since facing the Texans in Week 4, though the 23-year-old cornerback has never been placed on injured reserve at any point during his inactive stint. The third-year man out of Texas started two of the Vikings' first four games of 2020, recording three pass deflections and a sack while playing at least 75 percent of the defensive workload in each outing. Given yet another DNP in practice, it's unlikely he suits up Sunday against Detroit unless he can rebound and return to the field during Friday's session.

Hill (foot) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Hill was unable to practice all week before being ruled out Friday, so he never had a chance of suiting up Sunday. Mike Hughes (neck) has moved to injured reserve, leaving Cameron Dantzler, Jeff Gladney and Harrison Hand to lead the cornerback group Week 8.

Hill (foot) did not practice Thursday.

Hill's foot injury is still holding him out of practice, even though he had extra time to rest during Minnesota's bye. If Hill is forced to miss a third straight game, the Vikings will once again roll with Mike Hughes, Cameron Dantzler and Jeff Gladney at cornerback.

Hill (foot) won't play in Sunday's game against the Falcons.

It was reported Friday that Hill was unlikely to suit up in the contest after he missed practice this week, so this news isn't surprising. Hill will miss his second straight game, and in his absence, Mike Hughes, Cameron Dantzler and Jeff Gladney will serve as Minnesota's top three cornerbacks Sunday.

Hill (foot) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.

The 23-year-old missed the Week 5 loss to the Seahawks and is expected to sit out his second straight contest. Mike Hughes, Cameron Dantzler and Jeff Gladney will serve as Minnesota's top three cornerbacks in Hill's expected absence.

Hill (foot) did not practice Thursday.

Hill has yet to resume practicing since picking up a foot injury Week 4. He'll likely need to resume handling at least limited reps Friday for any chance of suiting up against the Falcons on Sunday.

Hill (foot) is listed as inactive Sunday at Seattle.

Hill has ranged between 76 and 100 percent of the defensive snaps for the Vikings through four games, resulting in a healthy 24 tackles, three pass defenses and one sack. With Hill and Kris Boyd (hamstring) sidelined, Minnesota will roll with Mike Hughes, Jeff Gladney and Cameron Dantzler as its top three cornerbacks.

Hill (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Hill began the week limited in practice, but he was downgraded to a non-participant Thursday and is now officially questionable. If he were forced to miss Sunday night's game in Seattle, rookies Jeff Gladney and Cameron Dantzler would benefit from increased defensive snaps.

Hill had seven total tacks and a sack in Sunday's loss at Indianapolis.

Hill struggled in coverage for a second consecutive week, as he allowed all four passes targeted against him to be completed for 57 yards and a 118.8 NFL passer rating against. He'll need to improve to keep his starting role at cornerback.

Hill had seven total tackles and a pass defensed in Sunday's 43-34 loss to Green Bay. He struggled in pass coverage, allowing seven receptions on 11 targets for a total of 87 yards and a touchdown, according to Pro Football Focus.

Hill played on 59 of the defense's snaps as he and Cameron Dantzler were the primary corners next to Mike Hughes in three-receiver sets. Hill's poor performance could have the VIkings increase the playing time of rookies Dantzler and Jeff Gladney.

Hill is listed as a starting cornerback opposite Mike Hughes on Minnesota's initial unofficial depth chart.

He may not keep the starting job long with both 2020 third-round draft pick Cameron Dantzler and 2020 first-round draft pick Jeff Gladney contending for playing time, but it looks like Hill will get significant snaps early in the season.

Hill started at cornerback opposite Mike Hughes when the Vikings were in their base defense in Friday's dress rehearsal scrimmage at U.S. Bank Stadium, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

If Friday's scrimmage is any indication, Hill looks set to begin the season as a starter at cornerback with 2020 third-round draft pick Cameron Dantzler working in the nickel defense (on the outside with Hughes moving to slot corner). Hill may not keep the starting job long with both Dantzler and 2020 first-round draft pick Jeff Gladney contending for playing time, but it looks like Hill will get significant snaps early in the season. Gladney is also working his way back from March surgery that repaired a torn meniscus.

Hill (suspension) was added to the Vikings' 53-man roster Saturday.

Hill served two separate four-game suspensions to start the season and will be able to make his season debut Sunday at Kansas City, assuming he's active. The 22-year-old may not see significant playing time right away with the rest of Minnesota's secondary currently healthy.

Hill has officially served two separate four-game suspensions and is now available to suit up for the Vikings' Week 8 matchup versus the Chiefs, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

The Vikings have received a roster exemption through next week, so they do not have to make an immediate roster move to allow Hill on the 53-man roster. The 22-year-old is set to take on a depth cornerback role in the team's secondary.

Hill (suspension) was ejected from Sunday's preseason game against the Seahawks after delivering a helmet-to-helmet hit on quarterback Paxton Lynch.

Hill just keeps digging a deeper hole for himself. Already suspended for the first eight regular-season games because of PEDs, the cornerback might pick up even more supplemental discipline for his reckless on-field play.

Hill has been handed a second four-game suspension for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances, NFL.com reports.

With that, Hill - who can still participate in all offseason and preseason practices, as well as preseason games - won't be able to return to the Vikings' regular-season roster until after Week 8. The 22-year-old logged 36 tackles and one pick in 16 games last season and will look to re-establish his role in the team's cornerback rotation as soon as Minnesota's Week 9 road tilt against the Chiefs.
