EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Giants today waived safety Will Hill, who played in 24 games with 10 starts for the team over the past two seasons.
Hill was signed by the Giants as a free agent in 2012, and over the past two seasons, his statistics are 100 tackles (87 solo), two interceptions returned for 38 yards with a touchdown, five passes defensed, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries, plus 26 special teams tackles.
On Friday, the NFL announced that Hill is suspended without pay for the first six games of the 2014 regular season for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.
A New Jersey native, Hill was named an All-American by USA Today and Parade, and was a two-time state Offensive Player of the Year at St. Peter’s Prep in Jersey City, where he was a three-year starter at quarterback, safety and a returner on special teams. Hill played safety for three seasons at the University of Florida.
