Taysom Hill Leaves Saints After Nine Seasons, Future Uncertain
Taysom Hill announced his departure from the New Orleans Saints, saying a return to the team is not possible, while his next destination remains unknown.
Taysom Hill, a 36-year-old free agent who spent nine seasons with the New Orleans Saints playing quarterback, tight end and wide receiver, said he will not return to the team. In a statement, Hill said the city had become more than a workplace, noting that his family built a life there and their oldest son was born in New Orleans. He added that he has used the offseason to consider his next steps and, while he has no definitive plan, a comeback with the Saints is off the table. Hill expressed gratitude to the organization and fans.
The former versatile player, who amassed 2,551 rushing yards, 1,034 receiving yards and 2,426 passing yards in his career, has been linked to the Denver Broncos, where he previously worked under head coach Sean Payton for five seasons.
