The Carolina Panthers announced Sunday that they’ve signed veteran CB Troy Hill to a contract.
Hill previously tried out for the Raiders but left the workout without a contract in place.
Hill, 31, originally signed on with the Bengals as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon back in May of 2015. He was unable to make the 53-man roster coming out of the preseason but later signed on to their practice squad.
Hill had a brief stint with the Patriots in 2015 before he was claimed off of waivers by the Rams. Los Angeles re-signed him to a two-year, $8.25 million deal back in 2019 and made a base salary of $2.85 million last season.
He was testing the market as an unrestricted free agent when he signed a four-year, $24 million deal with the Browns.
During the 2022 NFL Draft, the Browns traded Hill back to the Rams in return for a 2023 fifth-round pick.
In 2022, Hill appeared in 12 games for the Rams and recorded 67 tackles, an interception and four pass defenses.
We had him included in our Top 100 Available 2023 NFL Free Agents list.
