Alvin Kamara was participating at practice today. Taysom Hill and Jameis Winston were present but didn't appear to be participating much in the open portion of practice.

Reports said Kamara was close to playing in Week 2, so this is at least a positive sign Kamara is on the right track toward a return for Week 3. We should know more later in the week and the Saints have an early Sunday game at Carolina.

Dennis Allen on Taysom Hill: "He's going to provide multiple roles for us."

The tweet added that Allen said Hill will, "still take some snaps from the quarterback position." So it looks like Hill could be up to his old tricks, much like when Drew Brees was the QB. Underhill did say Hill's primary position will be TE. Hill's potential at TE is yet to be determined, but any production could get a boost depending on how much time he'll see at QB.

Saints HC Dennis Allen told reporters that the plan for Taysom Hill is to play him at tight end.

The re-signing of Jameis Winston was the apparent death blow to Hil's time at quarterback. With Sean Payton no longer in New Orleans, the fetishism of Hill under center appears to be over.

QB Jameis Winston is staying with New Orleans, agreeing to a two-year deal with the Saints.

Hill had to have foot surgery and will now have competition with Winston once again. Winston was more of a game manager with the Saints in 2021, but that could change with Sean Payton no longer coaching.

Saints QB Taysom Hill will undergo Lisfranc surgery and will need a second surgery to remove the hardware needed to complete the first surgery, according to Saints HC Sean Payton. There is no recovery timetable at this moment.

This is a major surgery for Hill, especially considering how important his running prowess is to his overall game. Best wishes in recovery.

Saints QBs Taysom Hill and Trevor Siemian have been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Expect Hill to start Week 17 with Siemian as his back-up.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill has been placed on the reserve/COVID list.

Taysom will be joining fellow quarterback Trevor Siemian on the list, leaving the Saints with fourth-string rookie Ian Book in line to start against a hungry Miami Dolphins team. Book's potential presence under center will be a drain on the fantasy values of all Saints skill players, most notably on the rushing upsides of Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram. Outside of single game DFS contests, Book should not be considered a fantasy option for Week 16.

Saints QB Taysom Hill told reporters Wednesday that he isn't able to get the same grip and rotation on the ball. He's trying to get used to it and is figuring how how to play with the splint.

A quarterback has to be able to throw the ball (breaking news), so this is concerning. Hill has three days to find a level of comfort or the Saints could be in trouble with an easier matchup Week 14 against the Jets.

Quarterback Taysom Hill will also be playing through the pain of a mallet finger injury in his right throwing hand and a partially torn plantar fascia in his foot.

Hill's follow-through on a pass hit a defending player, but Hill was able to return to the game. According to the story, it appears Hill will play through the injuries. Hill struggled with four interceptions in the game but did throw for two TDs and ran for over 100 yards.

Saints QB Taysom Hill may have torn a tendon in his middle finger on his throwing hand, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It is a similar injury to what Russell Wilson had.

UPDATE: Hill has a mallet finger according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, but he will not require surgery like Russell Wilson.

Welcome to QB purgatory, New Orleans! There has been zero injury luck for the Saints at the most important position in sports. Hill will try to play but do not be surprised if Siemian finishes the season as their starter.
