METAIRIE, La. -- If you’re handicapping the New Orleans Saints' quarterback field after Drew Brees retired on Sunday night, Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill remain the odds-on favorites to compete for the job this summer.
The Saints have made it clear they want to re-sign Winston in free agency. And Hill is under contract for one more year. (Hill restructured his contract on Sunday to include four automatically voiding years at an astounding rate of $140 million, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. But that was strictly for salary-cap purposes, and Hill didn’t actually get any new money or years added to his current deal.
