Hopefully Brian can crack that RB rotation.

He hasn't done too much with his opportunities over the years. He received carries last weekend because Devonta Freeman was ejected from the game. I'm hopeful he will have that 'breakout' but I see it as unlikely at this point.

With the Bengals he had a couple great games.

edit: it was last year with the falcons he had a great game

He had the 60 yard run but ended that game with 8 total carries which is the most attempts he has had in any game over his 3 years in the league.
 
Hill had 20 carries for 61 yards for an average of 3.1 and a long of 15. He also had one TD reception of 10 yards as his Falcons defeated the Saints 26 - 9. Link: https://www.espn.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=401127948
 
Hill was always a workhorse. One of those rare backs you can keep feeding all game long, and he'll bowl defenders over after 30+ carries and 200+ yards.

Lots of carries for Brian!

Freeman was injured (and Ito Smith out for year) led to the opportunity for Hill. Atlanta grabbed a 2 score lead and sought to run clock. This is certainly what Hill is effective at because he usually falls forward. Hill wasn't flashy by any means and probably didn't turn any heads but he was instrumental in the Falcons win.
 
Hill had 15 carries for 30 yards for an average of 2 and a long of 11. He also had one reception of 8 yards as his Falcons defeated the Panthers 29 - 3. Link: https://www.espn.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=401128049
 
Sounds like they are running Brian into a brick wall. Falcons keep winning while he is playing. That's all that matters/
