The Countdown to 2012 Elite Continues: An Interview with Jets WR Stephen Hill

As football collectors around the country set their clocks to Elite Standard Time (and the release of 2012 Elite Football next week), we’re continuing our “Countdown” series of interviews that began with the launch of 2012 Prestige Football and starring the NFL’s top rookies who attended May’s 2012 NFLPA Rookie Premiere.

We kicked off our Elite series earlier this week with Buffalo Bills blazer T.J. Graham, the speedy receiver out of North Carolina State. Yesterday, we turned our attention to former Oklahoma Sooners superstar Ryan Broyles, another likable, big-play, high-upside receiver with the Detroit Lions. Today, we feature our exclusive interview with New York Jets giant pass-catcher Stephen Hill, a young, affable receiver from Georgia Tech with size and big-play potential (sound familiar?).

Naturally, we couldn’t let Hill get away without asking about his two new quarterbacks — Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow. His answer, as you might expect, was pitch perfect. Stay tuned till the end of the interview for the exclusive world-premiere unveiling of Hill’s 2012 Elite Football Rookie Card.
