He was drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in 1988 and played for two seasons before being traded to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1990. Dill worked as an offensive lineman and deep snappers for the Bucs until 1995 when he signed with the Minnesota Vikings. He spent two seasons with the Vikings before retiring and coming back to Memphis.
