K.J. Hill may be working his way up some draft boards during Senior Bowl practice this week.
On Tuesday, a video of the former Ohio State receiver went viral after sending a defender to the ground and hauling in a catch near the sideline during a practice in Mobile, Alabama. Hill burned the defender and raced to the sideline to make an impressive grab before stepping out of bounds.
Below is the video of Hill’s spectacular play:

Hill finished the 2019 season as Ohio State’s second-leading receiver, totaling 636 yards and 10 touchdowns on 57 catches. He piled up over 500 yards of receiving in each of his last three seasons with the Buckeyes.
In four seasons in Columbus, Hill racked up 2,312 yards and 20 touchdowns. He was a key cog in Ohio State’s passing offense for most of his time with the program.
Now, he’s looking to make a great impression on the NFL scouts as the Senior Bowl approaches.
