The main points made in the message are that he is in good spirits as he prepares for surgery. He thanked all fans for the outpouring of support and is confident that he will make a full recovery.
Many pondered if this latest injury would bring his time in black and gold to an end, but it appears as though the 34-year-old will try to make his way back to the field.
In eight seasons playing for New Orleans, Hill has 3,380 yards of scrimmage for 44 touchdowns. He also had 2,369 passing yards with 11 more scores. That doesn’t even cover the contributions he has made on special teams. A true once-in-a-lifetime player.
