An 11th round pick (145 overall) by the Colts in the 1962 NFL Draft, Hill was released and signed with the Jets (Titans) in August.

He is a member of the Jets first Ring of Honor Class, along with Joe Namath, Don Maynard, Joe Klecko, Curtis Martin, and Weeb Ewbank. Hill was inducted posthumously into the Hall of Fame after passing away in 2016.
