NFL Trade Rumors
Per Nick Underhill, the Saints are reworking TE Taysom Hill‘s contract and creating $3.6 million in cap savings.
Hill is on the PUP list and will be out until at least Week 4 before returning to practice.
Hill, 35, wound up signing on with the Packers as an undrafted free agent out of BYU back in 2017. He was waived and later claimed off waivers by the Saints.
Hill played out the final year of his rookie contract before receiving a restricted tender from the Saints last year. New Orleans signed Hill to a two-year deal worth $21 million a month later.
Hill’s deal was set to void before the 2022 season, but the Saints gave Hill a sizable contract extension. He’s entering the final year of that deal and due a $10 million base salary in 2025.
In 2024, Hill appeared in eight games for the Saints and rushed for 278 yards on 39 carries (7.1 YPA) and six touchdowns to go along with 23 receptions on 31 targets for 187 yards.
