Taysom Hill caps off Saints' opening drive with rushing TD

NEW ORLEANS -- New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill didn't take long to take over his team's opening drive against the Cleveland Browns.

The Saints, starting at midfield after forcing a fourth-down stop on the Browns' first drive, deployed Hill as Alvin Kamara's blocker for a 5-yard gain. Then they brought Hill in to throw a first-down pass to Kevin Austin Jr.

Hill moved to receiver to catch a 3-yard pass from quarterback Derek Carr before taking a direct snap and running 10 yards into the end zone to cap off his show of versatility.
