2024 RTSports Outlook

Hill played his usual hybrid role last year, but got more work as a runner than anything. He had a career high 96 carries for 575 yards and seven touchdowns. He made some big plays with the ball in his hands. He also caught nine passes for 77 yards and two touchdowns. And he threw two touchdown passes, giving him 11 total touchdowns on the season. He was eighth overall in fantasy tight end scoring. He was hit or miss, though, having some huge games while disappearing in others. He had one game with 30-plus fantasy points and six others with double-digit fantasy points. He also had six games with fewer than five fantasy points. Hill should play a similar role this season with the Saints, getting work all over the field. Hill has good speed and is a load to bring down in the open field because of his size and strength. Hill isn't much of a thrower, lacking some accuracy and touch, especially on deeper throws. Hill catches the ball pretty well and can be a load to bring down as a running back because of his size.

FANTASY OUTLOOK: Hill is a tough fantasy player to gauge. He is going to have a big game but is not going to be super consistent. He is an easier play in best ball leagues because of his inconsistent production. But if you want to roll the dice with him in standard leagues, consider him more of a platoon player. It would not surprise to see his production slip a little this year. He could get around 500 total yards and seven or eight touchdowns.

Player Notes
Jan 7 6:43pm ET

New Orleans Saints QB Taysom Hill rushed for 51 yards on six carries against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 18. He also caught four passes for 28 yards during the game.

From TheHuddle

Jan 7 5:30pm ET

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill saw work both on the ground and through the air with Alvin Kamara (ankle) missing Week 18's win. Hill carried the ball six times for 51 yards, ripping off a game-long 27-yarder. He also caught all four targets for 28 yards. The versatile playmaker lined up all over the field, helping the Saints pick apart the Atlanta defense for 48 points. New Orleans will now await the result of both the Green Bay and Seattle games as he Saints hold onto hopes of sneaking into the playoffs.

From RotoBaller

Jan 5 4:40pm ET

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill saw a slightly increased role in Week 17 as he continued to work his way back from injury, scoring his second receiving touchdown of the season. With Alvin Kamara (ankle) not practicing all week and Juwan Johnson (chest) also banged up, the opportunity for Hill to get involved both on the ground and through the air should arise. The Atlanta Falcons surrender 20.3 points per game to opponents, ranking ninth-best in the league. Hill offers upside due to potential increased usage, but the statuses of Kamara and Johnson should be monitored before plugging him into lineups.

From RotoBaller

Jan 1 11:10am ET

New Orleans Saints gadget player Taysom Hill carved out a role in the Week 17 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, finding the endzone for the sixth time this season. Hill completed 1-of-2 passes for 11 yards, carried the ball twice for one yard, and caught both targets for 30 yards and a touchdown. While it was not his most productive day yardage-wise, Hill salvaged his fantasy day with a touchdown. He will be a low-floor, high-ceiling play in Week 18 against the Atlanta Falcons.

From RotoBaller

Jan 1 3:33am ET

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill completed one of his two passes for 11 yards, ran for one yard on two carries and caught both of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Week 17 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

From TheHuddle

Dec 29 12:30pm ET

New Orleans Saints gadget player Taysom Hill has seen a limited role since returning from injury. Hill played 19% of snaps in Week 15 and 17% of snaps in Week 16, totaling just four touches. In a must-win Week 17 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, it remains unclear just how involved Hill will be in New Orleans' gameplan. The Swiss army knife has been a fantasy goldmine at times, but the unpredictable nature of his boom games makes him far too risky of an option to insert into lineups during championship week. Look elsewhere for a tight end in championship week.

From RotoBaller

Dec 21 11:23pm ET

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill had two carries for two yards in a 30-22 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16.

From TheHuddle

Dec 20 4:20pm ET

New Orleans Saints offensive weapon Taysom Hill was quiet in his return to action last week, but hopes to have more of an impact as the Saints gear up to take on the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday night in a game with significant playoff implications. Hill's usage is tough to project on a week-to-week basis, but now that he is off the injury report he will likely see more than the 19% of snaps he saw a week ago. Hill is a high-end TE2 this week with a high ceiling and a low floor. The Rams have surrendered 25.3 points per game in their last three games, meaning there will be opportunities for the Swiss army knife to find the end zone.

From RotoBaller

Dec 18 1:10pm ET

New Orleans Saints tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill (foot, hand) returned from a one-game absence in Week 15's contest against the New York Giants but had a very limited role in the easy 24-6 victory on Sunday. Hill played just 19 percent of the offensive snaps, his fewest since Week 1, carrying the ball only once for one yard and catching his only target for a four-yard gain. The 33-year-old was eased back into the fold in a game in which the Saints didn't really need to do much on offense to come out on top. The 33-year-old should be more involved moving forward and has been a key contributor on the ground for New Orleans in 2023, but this is another reminder that the Swiss Army Knife is prone to letdowns in his hybrid role.

From RotoBaller

Dec 17 8:43pm ET

New Orleans Saints TE Taysom Hill gained one yard on one carry, caught one pass for for four yards and failed to complete his only pass in a 24-6 win over the New York Giants in Week 15.

From TheHuddle

Dec 15 6:43pm ET

New Orleans Saints QB Taysom Hill (foot, hand) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 15, and is not on the injury report for Week 15.

Fantasy Spin: Hill is on track to return to the lineup after a one-game absence and should be involved in both the passing and running game this week. He can be a starting option in fantasy leagues if he is considered a tight end in leagues.

From TheHuddle

Dec 15 3:40pm ET

New Orleans Saints tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill (foot, hand) upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday after two straight limited practices and was removed from the final Week 15 injury report. Hill missed the Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers but will now return to face the visiting New York Giants this Sunday. And with top wideout Chris Olave (ankle) a game-time decision, Hill could be looking at a heavy workload for the Saints offense in a good matchup. The 33-year-old will resume his hybrid role all over the field, mainly as a runner, but more targets could be headed his way if Olave is unable to play. Fantasy managers should consider Hill a low-end TE1 this weekend with more upside if Olave is out.

From RotoBaller

Dec 15 3:33pm ET

New Orleans Saints DE Isaiah Foskey (quad) and RB Kendre Miller (ankle) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 15 versus the New York Giants. DE Payton Turner (groin) was limited in practice on Friday, Dec. 15, and has also been ruled out. WR Chris Olave (ankle) did not practice all week but is listed as questionable. OT Ryan Ramczyk (rest, knee) and RB Jamaal Williams (groin) were limited in practice all week and are also listed as questionable. DE Cameron Jordan (ankle) was limited in practice all week but no longer appears on the injury report. OG Andrus Peat (illness), TE Taysom Hill (foot, hand) and WR Rashid Shaheed (thigh) practiced in full on Friday and have also been removed from the injury report.

From TheHuddle

Dec 14 4:53pm ET

New Orleans Saints QB Taysom Hill (foot, hand) was limited during practice Thursday, Dec. 14.

Fantasy Spin: Hill seems to have a decent chance to play in Week 15 after two straight limited practices. He likely will see a decent amount of touches if active and could be a starting option in some leagues.

From TheHuddle

Dec 14 4:20pm ET

New Orleans Saints tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill (foot, hand) is trending towards a return in Week 15 against the New York Giants following his absence in the Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers. Hill has had two straight limited practices this week. The 33-year-old veteran continues to be a Swiss Army Knife for the Saints, being used out of the backfield and as a pass-catcher. He had a season-high 13 carries for 59 yards and a touchdown on the ground in the Week 13 loss to the Detroit Lions and could be used even more through the air this weekend if top wideout Chris Olave (ankle) is unable to move past his ankle injury. The matchup against the G-Men is a nice one and Hill is trending up as at least a low-end TE1 option for fantasy managers in Week 15 if he's able to play.

From RotoBaller

Dec 13 4:10pm ET

New Orleans Saints tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill (foot, hand) was able to practice with the team on Wednesday as they get set to play the New York Giants on Sunday in Week 15. It's not a guarantee that Hill will play after sitting out the Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers, but it's a good sign nonetheless. The Saints continue to use Hill as a Swiss Army Knife all over the field in 2023, and he has 346 yards and seven touchdowns on the ground and a career-high 26 receptions for 229 yards through the air. He's also completed five passes for 72 yards and a TD. Before his injuries, Hill had 367 scrimmage yards and five TDs in the previous five games. The 33-year-old can do it all, but he's been a boom/bust low-end TE1 option for fantasy managers this year.

From RotoBaller

Dec 13 3:53pm ET

New Orleans Saints QB Taysom Hill (foot, hand) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 13.

Fantasy Spin: Hill did not play in the Week 14 game but seems to have a chance to play this week. He is involved in the running and passing game when healthy and could be a possible option in some leagues if active for Week 15.

From TheHuddle

Dec 10 11:53am ET

New Orleans Saints QB Taysom Hill (foot, hand) has been declared inactive for the Week 14 game.

Fantasy Spin: The Saints probably will use multiple players to replace Hill in the offense, but Alvin Kamara and Chris Olave are the only must-start Saints players in fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Dec 10 10:03am ET

New Orleans Saints TE/QB Taysom Hill (foot, hand) is not expected to play in Week 14's game against the Carolina Panthers, according to multiple sources.

Fantasy Spin: Hill had been listed as questionable on the injury report after not participating in any of the team's three practice sessions during the week. If he is held out of action this afternoon, TE Juwan Johnson would likely see more offensive snaps but can probably be avoided in most fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Dec 10 8:00am ET

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill (foot, left hand) is expected to be inactive for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the wrong direction after missing all three practices this past week. Hill has been a solid contributor on offense this season, totaling 226 rushing yards, 213 receiving yards, and five touchdowns over his last seven games. Juwan Johnson (quad) will operate as the Saints' No. 1 tight end but severely lacks Hill's versatility and playmaking style.
