Taysom Hill

Saints QB Taysom Hill completed 9-of-16 passes for 78 yards while adding 44 rushing yards and two touchdowns as a rusher in Sunday's Week 12 win over Denver.

Hill had a similar outing as last week in his first start. He was solid throwing the football working short and intermediate routes while getting the job done on the ground. Hill will get the Falcons in Week 13.

Saints QB Taysom Hill will officially lose his TE eligibility for Week 12 and beyond in ESPN Fantasy Leagues.

Hill managers in ESPN leagues were lucky enough to slot him in as their starting tight end in Week 11, but that will be short-lived as Hill will become only QB-eligible starting this week. He is still squarely in the QB2 conversation with upside, but he will no longer be a cheat code in ESPN Fantasy Leagues.

Saints QB Taysom Hill completed 18-of-23 passes for 233 yards and carried the ball 10 times for 51 yards with two touchdowns in Sunday's Week 11 win over the Falcons.

Hill dazzled in his first career NFL start. While he did not throw for a touchdown, he managed two on the ground. He also completed 78.3 percent of his passes, something many questioned. Hill will look to keep it rolling, assuming he remains the stater -- he will -- in Week 12 against the Broncos.

Saints coach Sean Payton told reporters Friday afternoon that he hasn't announced a starting quarterback for Week 11 against the Falcons.

“I haven’t announced that either one of them are starting," Payton said. This is technically true, as it was Adam Schefter of ESPN who reported that Taysom Hill would be starting over Jameis Winston on Sunday afternoon. The uncertainty takes Winston out of streaming consideration, though Hill is still worth starting if he's eligible at tight end in your league. New Orleans will likely use each of them at times against Atlanta. Perhaps we'll get some clarity over the weekend.

Taysom Hill will start at quarterback in Week 11 for the New Orleans Saints. Jameis Winston will be his backup.

Despite Winston coming in for Drew Brees in the 2nd half of Week 10’s game, it is Hill who has taken all the starter reps in practice this week. Hill, who was given a two-year, $21M contract, will have a shot to show the Saints and the rest of the NFL what he can do as a full-time starting quarterback Sunday against the Falcons.
