Commanders Sign Trey Hill: A New Center Joins
3 Aug
Summary
- Commanders signed center Trey Hill, a 2021 Bengals sixth-round pick.
- Hill has played for five NFL teams, including the Packers and Bears.
- He offers physical presence and guard versatility for the Commanders.
The Washington Commanders have officially signed center Trey Hill, adding a new player to their offensive line roster. Hill was originally drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. During his tenure with the Bengals, he appeared in twenty-five games, making three starts.
This signing marks Hill's fifth NFL team, having previously been with the Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears, and Tennessee Titans. Standing at 6'4" and weighing 319 pounds, Hill is noted for his physical play and solid anchor. While he moves well for his size, his fit in an outside zone scheme is questionable.
Hill is expected to provide additional depth at the center position during training camp while teammate Nick Allegretti is sidelined with a calf strain. Furthermore, Hill possesses the versatility to play guard if needed. His most likely role could be as a practice squad player, potentially replacing Julian Good-Jones.
In a related roster move, the Commanders have released cornerback Tre Hawkins.
