A slasher flick: Taysom Hill returns to his do it all role

It seems that this New Orleans Saints team has three quarterbacks whose legends will live in New Orleans folklore as long as there’s football to be played. Sunday we got to witness a vintage performance from the NFL passing yards record holder as Drew Brees returned ahead of schedule from his thumb injury. This came after a five-week stretch that saw Teddy Bridgewater—possibly the most beloved backup quarterback in Saints history—go undefeated as he filled in for the future first ballot hall of famer.

Missed in the action was the do it all third year quarterback Taysom Hill, whose status as the new number-2 quarterback kept him from playing the average number of snaps he typically would see.
