Drew Brees: Taysom Hill has the tools, intangibles to 'be a great player'

New Orleans Saints coaches, scouts and players are looking forward to seeing what quarterback Taysom Hill can do in training camp this summer.

Hill spent his rookie offseason with the Green Bay Packers, and while his preseason performance was good enough for the Saints to claim him off waivers and keep him on the roster for the entire 2017 season, the evaluation is far from complete.

The Saints will once again look to Drew Brees as the starting quarterback next season, but the team signed Tom Savage to compete with Hill for the top backup job.
