Other measurements — like speed, explosiveness and agility — will ultimately be more valuable to Justice Hill than his size at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis this week.
Still, the former Oklahoma State star measured in as one of the smaller running backs among the 28 in attendance. Eight backs were shorter than Hill’s measurement of 5-foot-9 5/8, and Hill was the second-lightest player at 198 pounds.
Florida Atlantic’s Devin Singletary was the shortest running back at 5-7 1/2. James Williams of Washington State came in at 5-9 1/2 and 197 pounds. He and Hill were the only backs under 200 pounds.
