Blake Hance Bio
Blake Andrew Hance is an American football offensive lineman who played college football at Northwestern before entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2019. Born January 11, 1996, in Jacksonville, Illinois, Hance is listed at 6 feet 5 inches and played primarily on the offensive line, with experience at tackle and guard.
At Northwestern, Hance developed into a dependable left tackle and finished his college career as an experienced starter. The Wildcats’ official 2018 biography describes him as a senior who made starts at both left guard and left tackle, reflecting the positional flexibility that became a feature of his professional career. He signed with Buffalo in 2019, later spent time with Washington, Jacksonville and the New York Jets, and reached the active roster with Cleveland during the 2020 season.
Hance made his most sustained NFL impact with the Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars before also playing for the San Francisco 49ers and Tennessee Titans. His NFL role has centered on versatility and depth along the offensive front rather than one fixed position. NFL transaction data records a termination of his Rams contract on August 30, 2026; because a current team is not established by the retrieved roster and transaction records, this biography does not assign him to a team as of September 30, 2026.
