Stephen Hill Benched

Stephen Hill is in his second season and it has been a disappointing one.  He is being replaced in the starting lineup and Yahoo Sports

has the story.

New York Jets second-year wide receiver Stephen Hill has been demoted with reduced playing time this week against theBaltimore Ravens, coach Rex Ryan announced.

Hill had his second consecutive game without a catch in Sunday’s blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills.

Hill has played 104 of a possible 121 snaps in the past two weeks.

Ryan acknowledged earlier this week that Hill’s playing time could be reduced. Hill was made aware Wednesday that he had lost his starting job to David Nelson.

Jets fans are sounding off on Stephen Hill in our message board.
