Former Michigan safety Daxton Hill was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals with the No. 31 pick Thursday night in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
Hill was a matchup problem for opposing offenses during his three year career at Michigan.
The 2021 season proved to be Dax’s best one.
He provided the Wolverines with a defensive weapon that could take away the opposing team’s biggest offensive threat.
Hill earned First Team All-Big Ten in 2021.
He also lead the Wolverines to their first B1G Title in over a decade.
He finished his career with the Wolverines posting a stat line of: 96 total tackles, 4 interceptions, and 15 passes defended.
Hill will provide an immediate boost to the Bengals secondary.
He possesses incredible athleticism, speed, and football IQ that make him impossible to throw against.
Versatility is one of Hill’s greatest assets. His ability to cover as a nickel back and his knack for defending the run make him the perfect defensive weapon.
Dax’s brother, Justice Hill was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round in 2019.
The 6-foot, 190-pound Hill played his high school ball in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and was rated as a 5-star prospect in the 2019 class.
