Dalton Hilliard of UCLA

[MonsterD]

Anyone watch this guy play? And no it is not the Saints RB from long time ago.

Apparently he was a RB and they needed someone to play FS because they had so many injuries and he filled in for the year and did a good job.

I heard an interview with him and he seems to be highly intelligent, grew up in Hawaii and New York and BOTH his parents were pro football players. He also says he thinks he is a distant relative of Dalton Hilliard the former NFL'er. Anyone?

Found this video from 2011 looks like he was training as a safety for at least a couple of years before last season.

Oh looks like his father tried out for the Cowboys and Giants and suffered an injury, he never made it to the NFL.

His mother:

Hilliard holds his mother in high regard, too. She's an executive at an engineering firm, but she also played professional football with the New York Sharks of the Women's Professional Football League.
"The running joke in my family is I'm the only professional player," Amalia said via phone from Seoul, South Korea. "I'm hoping and praying that my son gets to break that tradition."
