LSU's senior tailback will be joining Alfred Blue in Houston.
The Houston Texans selected the fourth LSU player of the 2015 NFL Draft, picking running back Kenny Hilliard with the 235th pick in the seventh round.
Hilliard will join former backfield mate Alfred Blue, who made the Texans roster as a low pick last year and even had a few choice moments as a rookie. It will be interesting to see if he stays at tailback or is asked to bulk up and shift to fullback.
