Report: Multiple People in Saints Organization Believe Winston Should Start Over Hill

Multiple players and people within the Saints' organization believe that quarterback Jameis Winston should be the team's starter on Sunday vs. the Falcons, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

However, according to Schefter, the Saints view Sunday's game as a chance to evaluate Hill as a quarterback and begin to determine his long-term role with the franchise.

"Sean just wants to know," one source with a deep knowledge of head coach Sean Payton's thinking told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Hill, 30, signed a two-year, $21 million contract this offseason, but has thrown just five passes this year, completing four of them for 86 yards.
