Saints TE Taysom Hill suffered a torn ACL and "additional damage" to his left knee in the Week 13 loss to the Rams, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That ends Hill's 2024 season and might challenge his availability for the start of the 2025 campaign. Hill will turn 35 in August. He's signed with the Saints through 2025.

Hill had been playing a big role for the Saints, averaging 5.6 targets and 5.0 carries per game over the last five.

His absence leaves targets behind for guys like WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling and TE Juwan Johnson, but neither is likely to become a reliable fantasy option down the stretch.

The big winner here is RB Alvin Kamara, who should pick up a few extra carries per game, particularly near the goal line. Hill had four rushing scores over the last five games vs. zero for Kamara.
