Rookie year aside, Hill has never played more than 47% of his teams defensive snaps despite never missing a game.
Rookie year aside, Larry has never had less than 63% of his teams defensive snaps despite missing one game in each of two separate seasons.
Were Hill the better all around player, I think the coaching staffs of the two clubs he has played for would have been keeping him on the field considerably more than a maximum of 47% of the time.
It’s almost like things can change…
Especially with players that are still fairly young (Hill is only 26). Last season - BJ Hill was the better all around player. The numbers back that up (see the deep dive Athletic article by Paul Dehner Jr if you want proof).
