Taysom Hill

Taysom Hill had seven rushes for 138 yards and three touchdowns in the Saints’ Week 11 win against the Browns, adding eight catches for 50 yards.

Hill was the centerpiece of the New Orleans offense in Week 11, leading the team with ten targets and cutting into Alvin Kamara’s rushing workload (Kamara had 16 carries). Hill had two first half touchdowns before a 70-yard touchdown run around the left end in the fourth quarter. The wily Swiss army knife veteran was unstoppable from start to finish in this one, regularly shedding tacklers and somehow outrunning Cleveland defenders. Hill’s day included an interception on a downfield shot and a lost fumble. Asked at halftime whether the Saints were using Hill too much on offense, interim head coach Darren Rizzi said no, and that Hill is “one of the best players” in the NFL. If Hill has anything close to this kind of usage for the Rizzi-led Saints, he should be considered a must-play weekly fantasy option.
