Ahead of the 2018 NFL draft, while he waited for his name to be called, Hines competed with Ninja as a part of the sponsored NZXT Fortnite team. Hines has maintained a good relationship with Ninja through the years and has continued to play with him on the Fortnite team.

In his third NFL season, Hines delivered career highs in rushing attempts (95), rushing yards (455), yards per carry (4.8), rushing touchdowns (3), receptions (65), receiving yards (490), and receiving touchdowns (4). He has also become an elite receiving threat out of the backfield, finishing as the highest-rated pass-catching running back in the entire NFL, according to Pro Football Focus.

In the Colts’ recent 27-24 wild card playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills, Hines had six carries for 75 yards as well as one reception for eight yards.

Hines had produced solid performances in his first two seasons in the league. He completed the 2019 season on the Colts with 52 carries for 199 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns to go along with 44 receptions for 320 receiving yards.

In his rookie season in 2018, Hines had 314 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, 63 receptions, 425 receiving yards, and two receiving touchdowns.

Before entering the 2018 NFL Draft during his senior year, he played football and ran track at NC State from 2015-2017. He led the ACC in all-purpose yards in 2017 with 197 carries for 1,112 yards.
