Drew Hill

Andrew Hill (October 5, 1956 – March 19, 2011) was a professional American football player who was selected by the Los Angeles Rams in the 12th round of the 1979 NFL Draft.

A 5ft 9in, 170 lb wide receiver from Georgia Tech, Hill played in 14 NFL seasons from 1979 to 1982 and from 1984 to 1993. As a member of the Houston Oilers, he set the team's record for most career pass receptions. He teamed with Ernest Givens, Curtis Duncan, Haywood Jeffires and Warren Moon in the Oilers' Run & Shoot offense. A two-time Pro Bowl selection in 1988 and 1990, Hill retired after the 1993 season as a member of the Atlanta Falcons.

Achievements
On September 30, 1990, Hill became the first player to score a touchdown in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, (beating James Lofton by one game). Hill accounted for 77 yards receiving in Warren Moon's record 527 yard passing performance against the Chiefs on December 16, 1990. During the 1991 season, Hill became the first player to have four 1,000 yard seasons after the age of 30 (later surpassed by Jerry Rice). At the time of his departure from the Houston franchise Hill was the team's all-time leader in receptions and receiving yards (since surpassed by Ernest Givins and Haywood Jeffires).
