Scouting Spotlight: Michigan DB Daxton Hill Vs Nebraska

The Michigan Wolverines pulled out the win in Lincoln Saturday night in a close one against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Michigan trialed heading into the fourth quarter but ended up winning the contest 32-29. The Michigan defense made some key plays throughout the game to secure the victory, including several impact plays by Daxton Hill. Hill continued his strong play this season with another stellar performance, recording five total tackles (three solo) 0.5 TFL, and one INT. One thing that stood out from watching Hill was his versatility, playing multiple spots in the defensive backfield. Traditionally a safety that was highly touted coming out of high school, Hill has become a Swiss Army Knife-type of defender, being capable to nearly every spot at a high level.
