Taysom Hill Could Remain Big Part Of Rushing Attack
2 years agoNew Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill went off for nine carries, 112 yards and three rushing touchdowns in the Week 5 win over the Seattle Seahawks, and NewOrleans.Football's Mike Triplett thinks that Hill will continue to be a big part of the Saints rushing attack moving forward. The 32-year-old former quarterback also threw for a 22-yard touchdown last Sunday. Through four games, he has 21 carries for 228 yards (10.9 yards per carry) and five touchdowns. Obviously, his 10.9 yards-per-carry mark isn't sustainable, but Hill isn't going away, which is mostly bad news for Alvin Kamara's fantasy owners. Keep in mind that both receivers Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (groin) were inactive in Week 5. Hill is currently rostered in only 31 percent of Yahoo leagues.
