Josh Hill

The New Orleans Saints appear on track to have a healthier tight end corps for training camp.

Josh Hill recently passed a physical, did well on a conditioning test and should be available for training camp, according to a source familiar with the situation.

The Saints will kick off training camp Thursday, with the first fully padded practice scheduled for Saturday.

Hill was present for organized team activities (OTAs) and the three-day minicamp in June, but did not participate in the on-field workouts. Hill spent the early part of the offseason recovering from a December surgery to repair a broken fibula suffered in Week 13 of the 2016 season.
