Morning links: Taysom Hill sends birthday wishes to big fan; are BYU and Utah in toughest NCAA volleyball bracket?

Former BYU quarterback Taysom Hill has developed a solid fanbase in the NFL, as New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton finds creative ways to get the versatile athlete on the field.

It's not just his ability to make plays in a variety of ways on the field that makes Hill so popular, though. His personality shines through, including on social media, and one family — the Brown family — shared how their son Max's favorite athlete made his birthday even more special.

First, it involved Max getting a Hill jersey for his birthday.

Max has been a huge fan of Taysom Hill since 2015 when he was at BYU.
