The Taysom Hill hype train in New Orleans was in full effect this off-season after Hill’s career game in the team’s wild-card game outing. It was for good reason, as Hill finished the game against the Minnesota Vikings as the first player in NFL history with 50 yards rushing, 50 yards passing, 25 yards receiving, and 1 tackle in any NFL game in history - postseason or regular aseason.
Hill’s talent has been recognized so profoundly, that it was one of the reasons the team let Teddy Bridgewater walk out the door, despite the quarterback starting over Hill in Drew Brees’s absence.
