TULSA, Okla. — Former Tulsa football star Dax Hill is headed to Cincinnati.
The Bengals picked Dax Hill, a Booker T. Washington alum, with the 31st overall pick in Thursday's NFL Draft.
Hill played three seasons of college football at Michigan, splitting time at safety and slot corner, and also saw some snaps on special teams. He allowed only two touchdowns in coverage for the Wolverines.
If drafted tomorrow night, @daxhill5 will become the 5th @BookerTFootball alum (Reuben Gant, R.W. McQuarters, @R_Meachem17, @felixjones28) to be taken in Round One of the NFL Draft.
He would also become the 20th former Hornet drafted - most in the state of Oklahoma. pic.twitter.com/vOfJEvyhqo

He ran a 4.38 40-yard dash at the Scouting Combine.
Hill is one of three Michigan players who landed on the 2021 All-Big Ten Defense First Team. That defense led the Wolverines to a conference title and an appearance in the College Football Playoff.
