Justice Hill Is Out for the Season in Baltimore

STILLWATER – According to multiple reports former Oklahoma State running back Justice Hill is going to miss the entire upcoming NFL season and the Baltimore Ravens are in a pinch for running backs as Hill is the second back the Ravens have lost in a five-day span.

Hill suffered a lower leg injury in practice last Thursday and according to ESPN they had a source confirm to them that the injury was a torn Achilles tendon after the NFL Network first reported that to be Hill’s injury. Hill had just returned to practice after missing two preseason games due to an ankle injury.

Hill’s injury came on the heels of last year’s top draft pick for the Ravens, former Ohio State running back J.K. Dobbins going down in the final preseason game with a torn ACL in his knee. Hill, the Raven’s number three back was due to play a lot more. Now Baltimore is auditioning running backs to add to their roster. The Ravens only healthy backs are veteran Gus Edwards and Ty’Son Williams.

The Tulsa native that played high school football for Booker T. Washington, Hill is just 23 years old. He was the fourth-round pick of the Ravens after leaving Oklahoma State a year early in 2019. Hill had been used sparingly with just 285-yards and a pair of touchdowns in two seasons.

The Ravens have another former Oklahoma State player on their roster with rookie wide receiver Tylan Wallace, who had a strong preseason to make the team.
