Matthew Stafford won’t play for the Detroit Lions in 2021. He and the Lions have agreed to part ways in a trade, and oddsmakers are already hard at work in guessing where he may land, though the New Orleans Saints are far from favored (they aren’t even in the top 10). Still, could he be the next quarterback Sean Payton looks to work with once Drew Brees entered retirement?
If he’s available, the Saints have to at least call about what it would take to move him. Taysom Hill didn’t show the Saints enough in his four starts last season to trust the franchise with, committing a dozen turnovers (10 fumbles, 2 interceptions) and taking 14 sacks on just 135 dropbacks.
