Hill (foot/knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. Hill, who has played just six special-teams snaps since being signed to the Buccaneers' active roster Nov. 18, is now set to miss at least the team's next four games after being placed on IR on Friday. The veteran cornerback will be eligible to return for Tampa Bay's regular-season finale against the Saints on Jan. 5.

Hill (foot/knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Hill has played through foot and knee injuries over the Bucs' last two games, but he will be sidelined for Sunday's contest. Hill's absence won't affect Tampa Bay's secondary much, as his snaps have been limited to special teams.
-
Hill (ankle/foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Hill logged a limited practice session Friday after missing the first two sessions of the week. The cornerback joined the Buccaneers' practice squad in October before moving up the active roster in November. After spending the first six games of 2024 with the Panthers, he'll now have a chance to suit up against his former team.

Hill (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. The 33-year-old began the Buccaneers' week of practice with a DNP but upgraded to limited sessions Thursday and Friday, indicating he could be on track to play Sunday. If Hill is able to suit up for the Week 12 matchup in New York, he'll likely see increased playing time as one of Tampa Bay's top rotational slot corners, especially with Tykee Smith (knee) listed as doubtful.

Hill (ankle) did not participate in the Buccaneers' first official practice of the week Wednesday. Hill was signed from the Bucs' practice squad to the active roster Monday to contribute depth to the secondary. However, he is nursing an ankle injury, which was serious enough for him to be sidelined for Wednesday's practice. If Hill is able to return to practice Thursday and/or Friday, that would give him a chance to suit up against the Giants on Sunday. Hill began the 2024 regular season with the Panthers, and before being released Oct. 18, he registered 32 tackles (20 solo) and one pass defended over six games.
