LANDOVER, Md. -- New Orleans Saints quarterback/playmaker Taysom Hill was ruled out of Sunday's game with a concussion after taking a hard hit to the head in the second quarter.
Hill was lunging to try and catch a pass when he was hit by Washington Football Team cornerback William Jackson III. Jackson lowered his shoulder and appeared to hit Hill directly in the helmet with his own helmet/shoulder area.
Hill was down on the field for a couple minutes before being carted -- sitting up -- to the locker room.
Hill has continued to play a valuable and versatile role for the Saints offense this season after losing the starting QB battle to Jameis Winston this summer.
