Honestly, I like that they are telling him he’s playing his gadget role and to give up QB. He can be a good player in that role. Let him just focus on that.

Jokes on Taysom cause that saves us money.

Edit: We will still see him run QB at times for short distance plays of course.

Makes you wonder if all the other coaches talked shite about Sean with his Taysom infatuation.

For a guy that is so smart--this is truly something I will never be able to wrap my head around.

Use Taysom as the wildcat QB in short yardage and play him in the TE/FB role the rest of the time. He is absolute money on 3rd and 1.

I know the players did. Sean’s obsession with Taysom was not popular among them.

All this revisionist history. He was always the backup under Sean Payton. Won a lot of games. Was very effective most of the time in his part time role with Brees, etc. One little Steve Young comment and let him compete with 30 INT Jaboo and y’all roast him and Payton. Sad.

The Saints moving Taysom Hill to TE is not something new. It's been in the works since last season. In fact, his new contract was structured to pay him like a tight end. Escalators were included if he ever took over and became the QB again, but the deal was essentially a TE deal.

Dennis Allen on Taysom Hill's role in 2022: "A lot more of the F tight end, move tight end type of role. I think that’s the direction that we need to move with him, because I think he may be one of the better players in the league in that role."

This is a GOOD thing for TAYSOM and the Saints. He has the athleticism to be a premier Tight End if he would go all in on the position.

Could he be a good QB? Maybe... but it hasn't happened yet and the years are ticking by.

Why not follow the path provided and go for greatness?

Definitely has the ability to be the type of hybrid player Chris Cooley was for the Redskins back in the 2000's. Tim Tebow had the opportunity to fill that role as well when he was coming out, but opted to be stubborn.
