November 10, 2008 Wide receiver Jason Hill had the best game of his career on Monday night as the 49ers lost 24-29 to Arizona. He had seven catches and 84 yards, but came up just shy of the goal line in the final minute of the game.
Our View:All 10 of his catches have come in the last two games and that may be because he shares an alma mater with his new head coach. He was huge in the game's final drive and may have permanently secured the No. 3 role from the currently injured Arnaz Battle.
November 8, 2008 Wideout Jason Hill will be the team's No. 3 receiver with Arnaz Battle suffering an injury, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

October 26, 2008 The 49ers have had a different receiver emerge each week, and that was no different in Week 8. Jason Hill caught three passes for 38 yards and a touchdown on Sunday.

August 21, 2008 Jason Hill caught four passes for 94 yards including a 37-yard touchdown from J.T. O'Sullivan on Thursday night against the Bears.
Our View:Hill caught only one pass as a rookie but has earned a lot of reps during OTAs. Any wide receiver in Mike Martz's offense is worth keeping an eye on.

Our View:Hill caught only one pass as a rookie but has earned a lot of reps during OTAs. Any wide receiver in Mike Martz's offense is worth keeping an eye on.
