New Orleans’ QB Taysom Hill signed a unique four-year, hybrid-type of contract extension that could be worth anywhere between $40 million and $95 million, depending on the position he plays, and includes $22.5 million guaranteed, sources tell ESPN.

Schefter went on to tweet Hill’s deal is unique and unlike other contracts because it pays him a $40 million base salary for the role that he’s currently playing, and up to an additional $55 million if he does become the Saints’ starting QB for the next four seasons. There are beat writers who earlier today indicated the Saints should consider moving away from Siemian after his performance in Week 11 vs. the Eagles, but nothing official has come from the team. It's interesting because the Saints have at times been linked to some of the bigger named QBs who could hit the market next year, however none of them would seem happy to give up snaps to Hill over the next four years, which could indicate Hill may be their guy.

Saints QB Trevor Siemian will start Week 10 at Tennessee. Taysom Hill will back up and still see the field.

A bit of a surprise based on how the Saints offense stalled last week. Temper expectations for the passing game Week 10.

Trevor Siemian said the late success didn’t make him feel any better because the team lost the game, but head coach Sean Payton had a more charitable view of how the quarterback played on Sunday.

“Overall, he played well,” Payton said in his press conference. “We missed some pickups. He had a few throws in there that were not primary receivers and played with poise, brought us back. I thought, overall, I felt like it was good."

Siemian didn't do much early on in what was his first start since 2019. Siemian lost a fumble while the Falcons were building a 24-6 lead over the Saints, but threw two fourth quarter touchdown passes to help get New Orleans back into the game, the story said. It would appear Siemian will get the call again in Week 10 against the Titans.

The New Orleans Saints are expected to start QB Trevor Siemian Week 9 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Saints HC Sean Payton confirmed Friday afternoon that Siemian would start while Taysom Hill plays.

Hill returned from a concussion this past week and probably needs more reps before playing a full game. That said, expect Hill to show up as a receiver/rusher at times Sunday.

Saints QB Taysom Hill (concussion) practiced Wednesday ahead of Week 9's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

Siemian may have surprised and excelled in spot work Week 8, but Hill gives the Saints the best chance to win Week 9.

Sean Payton on Taysom Hill: "He's progressing well. He's on schedule."

We'll assume Payton means Hill is on schedule to pass protocol and also assume if that's the case, Hill will start for the Saints with Winston now done for the season. There are a lot of ifs here, and if Hill has a setback or isn't on schedule to play in Week 9, Siemian will likely get the nod. We'll continue to monitor but at least for now, Hill looks to be the assumed starter once he's cleared. As we know from the past, Hill under center potentially means big downgrades for those around him thanks to his rushing ability, perhaps especially Kamara.

Taysom Hill was 3-1 as a replacement for Drew Brees last season and finished runner-up to Winston in an open competition for the job over the summer.

Unfortunately, Hill has been sidelined since Week 5 with a concussion. But assuming he returns to practice in the next week or two, he's the most likely long-term option for New Orleans.

Hill is still recovering from a concussion and his status for Week 9 is not certain. We did have a report earlier Monday that said Hill is expected to practice this week but will still need to be cleared. If Hill can't go, Siemian likely gets the start against the Falcons.

QB Jameis Winston does, in fact, have a torn ACL, source said after the MRI. He is out for the season. There is also damage to the MCL.

This was expected all along after Winston went down on Sunday against the Bucs. Reports on Monday say Hill is expected to return to the team in Week 9 after dealing with a concussion. One would think Hill takes over as the starter but Siemian played well filling in for Winston and leading the Saints to a win. We'll know more as the week goes on. Fortunately, the Saints play an early game in Week 9 at home against the Falcons.

The Saints have Taysom Hill, who has missed multiple games with a concussion. Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Hill is expected to return to action next weekend, against the Falcons. They also have Trevor Siemian, who played well enough to beat Tom Brady today, and Ian Book.

The story was mainly about whether or not the Saints would consider calling Cam Newton with Winston likely out for the year. The key thing to take away for now is Hill is expected to return next week, and at the moment seems like the logical choice to start at QB. Kamara owners should take note. Kamara's had a huge workload over the last few weeks and Hill, in the past, has dipped into that.

Saints QB Jameis Winston was helped off the field after taking an awkward fall against the Buccaneers.

Trevor Siemian is now in at quarterback. Winston was 6/10 for 56 yards and a touchdown before exiting. Hopefully it’s not too bad of an injury. It will be interesting to see the offense under Siemian. Taysom Hill is inactive today.
