That is some of the BEST news I've heard all day.

Harrison to play.
Maroney to play.

Jackson to play and hopefully be more involved than just pass blocking.

Going up a top run offense, Hill is inactive, there will be a lot of reps & roatations for the Defensive front.. speaks volumes about the future of Marquise...

Not really. With Wilfork out, they need a backup NT. Therefore, Le Kevin Smith gets the nod over Hill.

You are right forgot about Le Kevin Smith, but without regard he has gotten ahead of Hill, whatever the situation.. Pierre Woods, Corey Mays even though they are primarily ST players, all seem to be getting some reps. My guess is Hill is not fitting the mold of versatility, vis a vis ST player, and days could be numbered.
