Hill delivered an extraordinary game in the Saints’ 35-14 win over the Browns, racking up 188 scrimmage yards (138 rushing, 50 receiving) and three rushing touchdowns. He made history as the first non-running back with at least 125 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns in a game. This marks Hill’s third Player of the Week award and his second on offense.

Hill joins a prestigious group of former BYU players, including Steve Young, as multiple-time Offensive Player of the Week winners.
