Alontae Taylor, Saints Free Agent

Top 5 New Orleans Saints Free Agents, Ranked

5. Taysom Hill

Taysom Hill making this list says a lot more about the rest of the Saints free agents than it does Hill himself. The do-everything Swiss Army knife is a fan favorite and one of the few remaining holdovers from the Drew Brees Era. However, time comes for us all, and it’s clear that Hill’s tank is pretty much empty.

Currently playing in his age-35 season, Hill has looked like one of the least athletic and most underwhelming players in the league anytime he has the ball in his hands. He’s averaging just 2.2 yards per carry as a runner and has caught just eight passes for 59 yards. Chances are, this is the end of the road for one of the more unique players in recent NFL history.
