Hill was claimed off waivers by the Saints on Sunday, Herbie Teope of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Hill had an impressive preseason in Green Bay, completing 14 of his 20 passes for 149 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. He also showed he could be a mobile quarterback with 10 rushes for 71 yards and a touchdown, but he did fumbled the ball twice. Despite this, the Packers simply refused to waste a roster spot on a third-string quarterback. Drew Brees is still aging well for the Saints, but Hill could be seen as a project to become the next quarterback in New Orleans.
