The New York Giants have reportedly expressed interest in acquiring Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill before the November 10 NFL trade deadline, according to ESPN. Giants coach John Harbaugh, who previously coached Hill during his long tenure with the Ravens, is said to be seeking additional backfield depth.
Ravens' stance and Hill's role
The Ravens have not moved any players yet but have fielded calls amid their slide to the bottom of the AFC North. Hill has served as the primary backup to star running back Derrick Henry for seven seasons, six of them under Harbaugh. The Ravens are reportedly uninterested in trading Henry, making Hill the more likely target. Hill has averaged 209.2 rushing yards per season with eight rushing touchdowns and five receiving touchdowns under Harbaugh, often functioning as a passing-down specialist.
Giants' running back situation
New York's backfield has been in flux. Cam Skattebo leads the group but was benched for one week after fumbling issues. Najee Harris is no longer on the roster, Tyrone Tracy Jr. is on injured reserve with a hamstring injury, and Devin Singletary ranks fourth in carries. A new acquisition would likely slot in as the No. 2 option behind Skattebo.
Harbaugh's pipeline from Baltimore
If a deal materializes, Hill would join a contingent of former Ravens players who followed Harbaugh to New York ahead of the 2026 season. That group includes tight end Isaiah Likely, fullback Patrick Ricard, safety Ar'Darius Washington, linebacker Malik Harrison, defensive tackles Basil Okoye and Josh Tupou, and punter Jordan Stout.
