The running back dropped weight earlier in the offseason before spring practice. He told reporters he felt good after dropping the weight during spring practice.

“I feel way faster,” Hill said. “I just feel better as a whole.”

Hill is expected to be one of the Crimson Tide’s top running back options during the upcoming season.
