Player Notes

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has seen his role in the offense expanded over the last few games. Last week, Hill saw a season-high 10 rushing attempts in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Sadly, Hill didn't have much success as he finished with 17 yards for a lousy 1.7 yards per carry. The expectation is that Hill is going to see a larger role again in Week 13 with Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) ruled out. Devin Neal will take over as the lead back, but Hill should see chances as well. It wouldn't be shocking to see Hill having double digit carries again, but his lack of success this season is a concern. Fantasy managers shouldn't trust him as anything more than a touchdown-dependent option for the upcoming matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has seen a minimal role in the offense since making his season debut in Week 5. Last week, Hill rushed the ball four times for 30 yards in their loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Normally, Hill doesn't see a ton of the field, but that could change in Week 10. Lead back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is currently questionable to suit up against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. That means, Devin Neal could be in line to start if Kamara is unable to go. It could also mean that Hill sees increased carries in the backfield. Fantasy managers should monitor Kamara's status and if he sits out then Hill could become a desperation option for this weekend.

New Orleans Saints QB/TE Taysom Hill had one incompletion in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams, while running four times for 30 yards.

From TheHuddle

Oct 28 6:30pm CT

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has been unable to find much success since returning in Week 5. Hill missed the beginning of the season while recovering from an ACL injury dating back to last season. The assumption was that Hill would be eased back into action, but he has barely seen the field over the last four games. Last week, Hill hauled in his lone target for six yards and rushed for six yards on two carries in the loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It doesn't appear that the Saints plan on getting Hill heavily involved in their offense. He has seen the field for less than 20 percent of the offensive snaps in three of his first four games. The 35-year-old is avoidable for the upcoming Week 9 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill ran twice for six yards and added a six-yard catch in a Week 8 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill caught both of his targets for 12 yards and ran twice for minus-four yards in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears.

Fantasy Spin: Hill has not been a fantasy factor in any of the three weeks he's played this season.

New Orleans Saints tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill recorded just one carry for one yard in the Week 6 loss to the Patriots, but it was enough for the 35-year-old Swiss Army knife to find the end zone. This was only his second game back since tearing his ACL in Week 13 of 2024, and so far he's logged seven carries for zero yards and a touchdown while also completing his lone pass attempt for 19 yards in Week 5. Hill remains one of the most unpredictable players in football, but a favorable matchup against a Bears defense allowing 156.4 rushing yards per game could give him a spark. He ranks as a TE2 with week-winning upside if he sees enough opportunities across the board.

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill had a one-yard touchdown run against the New England Patriots in Week 1. It was his only carry of the game.

Fantasy Spin: Hill, who scored 21 touchdowns over the past three years, has not been used much in two games under new head coach Kellen Moore. He did score on Sunday, however, and his positional eligibility at tight end seems to perennially make him a possible lottery ticket play. Barring an increased role, the downside will remain substantial.

From TheHuddle

Oct 9 3:20pm CT

New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore said that tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill has "been taking reps" at quarterback and is "definitely available to be a backup quarterback" to Saints starter Spencer Rattler. Hill famously played quarterback in college and started nine games under center for New Orleans across the 2020 and 2021 seasons. The 35-year-old completed a 19-yard pass in Week 5, his first game of 2025 after being activated off the physically unable to perform list. Hill is officially third on the Saints quarterback depth chart behind Rattler and rookie Tyler Shough. Most likely, Hill will see most of his touches as a rusher and receiver in a gadget role. Still, any significant playing time at quarterback would make Hill a must-start player in fantasy, as he would likely still be eligible at the tight end position in most league formats.

The New Orleans Saints' Swiss-Army Knife and "do it all man" Taysom Hill suited up on Sunday for the first time in 2025 after suffering a torn ACL in Week 13 of 2024. He served as the backup quarterback behind starter Spencer Rattler, while also fulfilling his regular role as a gadget player. He stepped in and completed his only pass for 19 yards, and had six carries for negative one yard, good for 0.66 fantasy points. Hill has always been a bit of a boom-or-bust option in the fantasy community. Still, if he were to step in for any serious time at quarterback, or continue to see six to 10 carries a game, he could easily provide TE1 fantasy production; however, there will be weeks like this, where it's close to a goose egg. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can roster him and see how things play out over the next few weeks.

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill completed his only pass attempt for 19 yards during the Week 5 game against the New York Giants. He also rushed for negative one yard on six carries during the game.

Fantasy Spin: Hill was not used as a receiver during the game but was used as a quarterback and runner out of the backfield. Fantasy players should probably continue to watch him over the next few games to see if he will be a valuable fantasy option.

From TheHuddle

Oct 5 10:50am CT

New Orleans Saints quarterback/tight end Taysom Hill (knee) is officially active for his 2025 season debut in Week 5 on Sunday against the visiting New York Giants, according to Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune. Hill was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Saturday and will play for the first time this year after suffering a torn ACL in Week 13 of 2024. He will be the backup QB behind starter Spencer Rattler while also serving in his normal gadget role in head coach Kellen Moore's offense. The 35-year-old do-it-all offensive piece will give the Saints offense a boost as they search for their first win of the season, but it's difficult to project how involved he'll be in his first game of the year. Hill is worth a bench stash as a tight end in deeper leagues, but he'll most likely be a boom/bust fantasy asset all year.
