Hill is a jack of all trades for the Saints, and he signed a unique contract extension to stay in New Orleans moving forward. His deal is for four years and includes $40M in base salary. However, that figure can increase to $95M if he eventually becomes the Saints’ starting quarterback. The deal also includes $22.5M in guaranteed money.
Hill went 3-1 as the Saints starting quarterback in 2020, but he hasn’t gotten the opportunity to start a game at quarterback this season. Jameis Winston filled that role early in the year, and Trevor Siemian has started the Saints’ past three games.
