Arizona football: Austin Hill to sign with the Seattle Seahawks

He has a legitimate chance to make the team

Another former Wildcat has signed as an undrafted free agent, this time it's Austin Hill. He'll be joining Pete Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks, according to Daniel Berk:

Even though Seattle is a perennial Super Bowl contender, the wide receiver position is definitely not one of their strengths. In fact, a 2011 undrafted free agent, Chris Matthews, had 4 catches for 109 yards and a touchdown in the Super Bowl for Seattle. So there's hope that Hill will not only make the team, but can produce too. Plus, Hill's situation is a bit different than most UDFA's, as he likely wouldn't have gone undrafted if he didn't suffer a knee injury a couple years ago.

And in case you missed it, Mickey Baucus signed with the Miami Dolphins, and Fabbians Ebbele signed with the Green Bay Packers
