Alabama football’s running back, Daniel Hill will be playing at a lighter weight this spring after dropping eight pounds.

Hill is among the Crimson Tide players who have dropped the most weight since last season. The Mississippi native is now listed at 6-foot-1 and 236 pounds.

Alabama listed Hill at 244 pounds last season. He stood out as one of the bigger backs in college football last fall, finishing the 2025 season with 487 all-purpose yards, six rushing touchdowns, and one touchdown reception.

Daniel Hill will enter spring practice as the likely frontrunner to start at running back for Alabama.
