Instincts: Keeps defensive backs off balance with his quick cuts. Times his arm extension to catch the football like an NFL player. As a return man, Gill’s moves can turn around a defender.

Polish: Gill is a crafty wide receiver; knows how to deceive defensive backs with quick and timely cuts. Changes direction very well after the catch or during the return. Makes difficult catches when the ball is off-target.

Bottom Line: A shifty player with the ball in his hands, Gill’s quickness and abrupt juke moves keep defenders guessing. Also providing great hands, Gill can turn a simple play into a big gain. Gill is also a very good return man.
