Taysom Hill makes it clear what role he wants after New Orleans Saints signed Derek Carr

New Orleans Saints gadget player Taysom Hill has done a bit of everything in his five seasons in the NFL, and he is targeting a bigger role in the passing game in the 2023 campaign.

Hill's snaps as a quarterback were reduced under head coach Dennis Allen last season, when he was listed as a tight end on the roster. He only threw 19 passes having thrown 134 and 121 attempts in the two previous seasons respectively, when Sean Payton was in charge.

Instead, he lined up all over the formation and had a career-high 96 carries for 575 yards and seven touchdowns. The 32-year-old also caught nine passes last season for two TDs.
