When the Dallas Cowboys selected Trysten Hill in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft, the organization believed they had their stud defensive tackle they had craved for years. Hill had posted some eye-popping numbers in his final season at UCF, 10.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks, and saw his draft stock skyrocket up to eventually being selected by Dallas with the 58th pick.
Since then, things have gone about as poorly as the Cowboys or Hill himself could have imagined. During his first NFL season, Hill posted a lackluster performance on and off the field. The defensive tackle racked up just five total tackles, one tackle for loss, and zero sacks in seven games. Hill posted a PFF defensive grade of 57.1, an extremely disappointing grade for a second-round pick.

Home to Norm’s Raggedy Ass IPA, Griffin Claw may be better known for its beers than its distilled spirits, but that could change, as the brewing company has recently been making a splash with some great liquid packaged inside beautiful bottles.
Griffin Claw began distilling when it opened in 2013 to serve cocktails and spirits to taproom visitors who weren’t beer fans. And while bottles were available to purchase from the taproom, they were mostly an afterthought. COVID-19 changed that, as the brewery saw the opportunity to get not only its beers but also its spirits right into people’s homes. But the company wanted a package that was as high quality a
City council breathed new life into Downtown Prince George Monday.
The organization had been on life support since city council denied the proposed downtown business improvement area (DBIA) bylaw in 2008. A second version of the bylaw, with redefined boundaries and a lower property tax requisition on downtown property owners, was approved on Monday.
“For me, the DBIA is essential,” said Coun. Shari Green, who also owns a business in the DBIA area. “I think they’ve done some pretty hard work. Because of that hard work, some things are starting to happen downtown.”
Green said there is no doubt action is needed downtown.
