Power back with NFL-graded size and tackle-breaking traits
Hilliman stood out at Rutgers as a sturdy, downhill runner with above-average power, build, and tackle-breaking ability, traits that carried him from college to the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2019.[3][1] His Rutgers profile also shows he was productive in spurts, including two rushing touchdowns in a game against No. 4 Ohio State, which hints at an ability to deliver in physical matchups.[7] The appeal is a dependable short-yardage style and a compact frame that fits a bruising run game, though his pro stat line reflects limited production and an average of 3.0 yards per carry in 2019.[4][1]
