HOUSTON – Texans linebacker and special-teams standout Jamal Hill was honored at his high school Friday as his football jersey was retired.
Hill, a former Texans sixth-round draft pick from Oregon, was an all-region and all-county safety at Morrow High School in Ellenwood, Georgia.
“It’s a blessing to be honored by the community that poured into me,” Hill told KPRC 2. “This moment is not just about getting my jersey retired, it’s about inspiring the next generation to chase greatness the right way”
Hill, 24, recorded six tackles in 12 games and forced a fumble last season on special teams for the Texans.
He has 10 tackles in 20 career games. He played 75 percent of the special teams snaps last season.
He played safety and linebacker at Oregon and has run the 40-yard dash in 4.41 seconds.
