Number Two: Taysom Hill

Taysom Hill is a six-foot-two, 221-pound quarterback from Pocatello, Idaho.

Hill, 29, took the entire NFL by storm when he displayed his insane athleticism by playing six different positions throughout the last few seasons. Hill has lined up as a quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, fullback, and a returner over his 37 career games.

Taysom Hill has displayed great heart while on the Saints and has always been willing to do whatever it takes to help the Saints win. Hill is widely regarded as the “swiss army knife” of the NFL and continues to establish his dominance.

Saints head coach Sean Payton has even compared him to Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young.

Hill has put up an impressive stat line in his career too.

Hill has 64 carries for 352 yards and three touchdowns to go along with 22 receptions on 29 targets for 238 yards and six touchdowns. Hill also has 15 kick returns for 360 yards to go along with his ten defensive tackles.

Taysom has only been on the Saints for three years, but he’s likely going to stay a bit longer and continue to build his legacy in the black and gold.
