Taysom Hill on Approach to Saints' QB Battle: 'There Is No Replacing a Drew Brees'

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill said he's "excited" about the opportunity to compete for the team's starting job, though he understands the difficulty of filling a void left by a future Hall of Famer like Drew Brees.

Hill discussed his outlook for the upcoming season with Rod Walker of the New Orleans Advocate on Monday:

"I think the thing that I realize first and foremost is there is no replacing a Drew Brees. He's one of the greatest to ever do it. But I think as I got ready to enter the NFL, my goal and my mindset was to just do everything I can to have an opportunity to be a guy.
