According to Saints beat writer Larry Holder, “it’s fair to wonder if we’ve seen the last of [Taysom] Hill with the Saints.” The nearly 35-year-old is rehabbing an ACL tear from Week 13 of last season.
Here’s more from Holder (via The Athletic).
“The Saints’ jack-of-all-trades offensive weapon possesses the highest salary cap figure on the roster at nearly $18 million. He also turns 35 in August and will attempt to return after an ACL tear in Week 13 last season. New coach Kellen Moore seems optimistic Hill can return this season, but who knows if Hill will ever be the same given his age and the wear and tear on his body. The Saints could save $10 million if they cut Hill, but for once they actually don’t need the space since they’re around $23 million under the cap.”
Hill missed the entire offseason program. That’s particularly important, as the Saints are breaking in new HC Kellen Moore.
We’ll see when (if?) the veteran returns in any capacity during training camp. Regardless, Hill isn’t worth targeting in redraft leagues. Beyond his uncertain health status, the Saints project as one of the lowest-scoring offenses league-wide.
