Biography
Taysom Hill isn’t your average football player. Affectionately labeled a “human Swiss army knife,” the former undrafted free agent has defied the odds at every turn in the NFL. Throughout his time with the New Orleans Saints, Hill has aligned at receiver, tight end, fullback, tailback and quarterback. He finally got his chance to start under center in 2020 in relief of an injured Drew Brees and posted a 3-1 record. Though Hill has dabbled as an NFL QB in the past, he is now focused on improving as a tight end.
