Saints' Taysom Hill: Lead back in Week 16 win
Taysom Hill rushed 12 times for 42 yards, caught four of six targets for 36 yards and threw a 38-yard touchdown pass in Sunday's 29-6 win over the Jets. He also lost a fumble.Hill became the first player in the Super Bowl era to reach 1,000 career yards each in passing, rushing and receiving, as he raised his career total for receiving yards to 1,002. The versatile veteran worked as the primary running back in the absence of Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) and Devin Neal (hamstring, IR), as Audric Estime and Evan Hull logged five carries apiece. The cherry on top of Hill's history-making performance was a 38-yard touchdown pass to Chris Olave in the fourth quarter. Unless Kamara returns from a four-game absence in Week 17 against the Titans, Hill will likely continue to lead the New Orleans Saints' backfield.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Records two yards Week 15
Taysom Hill rushed twice for two yards and tallied zero targets during Sunday's 20-17 win against the Panthers.Hill logged exactly two touches for the third week in a row, and he's averaging 4.1 targets per game over 10 appearances this season. The 35-year-old has played sparingly in the New Orleans Saints' up-and-down offense, and he's totaled just 95 yards from scrimmage this year. Hill's minimal usage won't make him a player worth attention from fantasy owners over the final three games of the regular season. New Orleans will next play versus the Jets on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Logs two carries Week 14
Taysom Hill recorded two rushing attempts for minus-1 yard, and he failed to haul in either of his two targets during Sunday's 24-20 win against the Buccaneers.Hill tallied two touches for the second week in a row. The 35-year-old played a season-high 41 percent of the offensive snaps, but he's been largely irrelevant since his 2025 debut in Week 5. Over nine games, Hill is now averaging 0.4 receptions and 3.9 rushing attempts while totaling 10.8 yards per game. His low volume and inefficiency should continue to make Hill a non-factor for fantasy owners. New Orleans will next play Week 15 versus Carolina on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Tallies two touches Week 13
Taysom Hill gathered in his only target for five yards and logged one rushing attempt for two yards during Sunday's 21-17 defeat to the Dolphins.Hill logged fewer than three touches for the first time since Week 6. RB1 Alvin Kamara was inactive after spraining his MCL during last week's loss to Atlanta, but backup running back Devin Neal handled the bulk of the rushing workload with 14 carries. Third-year running back Evan Hull also chipped in with five rushing attempts. Across eight appearances this regular season, Hill has accrued 33 carries for 71 yards and one touchdown to go along with four catches (on five targets) for 23 yards. It seems unlikely that he'll become a significant piece of what has been a struggling New Orleans Saints offense this year.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Season-high 10 rush attempts Sunday
Taysom Hill rushed 10 times for 17 yards while failing to complete either of his pass attempts in Sunday's 24-10 loss to Atlanta.Hill saw his rushing attempts increase for the fourth consecutive contest, but the increased workload did not result in notable fantasy production. The Swiss Army knife does carry appeal in fantasy circles for his unique ability to run, catch or throw in any given game from the shallow tight end position. That said, Hill's inconsistent play this season prevents him from being a dependable starting option against the Dolphins next Sunday.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Logs seven carries Week 10
Taysom Hill logged seven carries for 20 yards and zero receptions (on one target) for zero yards during Sunday's 17-7 win over Carolina. He also failed to complete his lone passing attempt.Hill tallied a season high in rushing attempts for his second straight game with at least 20 rushing yards. However, four of his seven carries came on consecutive plays immediately before QB1 Tyler Shough kneeled it out on the final drive of the fourth quarter. The 35-year-old once again finished with the New Orleans Saints' second-most carries behind Alvin Kamara (22) and ahead of RB2 Devin Neal (four). Over six games this season, Hill has totaled 22 carries for 52 yards and a rushing touchdown, and he has three catches on four targets. The Saints will be on bye during Week 11, so Hill's next chance to score won't be until the Week 12 contest versus Atlanta on Sunday, Nov. 23.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Leading rusher in defeat
Taysom Hill compiled zero targets during Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Rams. He also rushed four times for 30 yards.Hill logged a team high and a season high in rushing yards, though nearly all of those yards came on his game-long 29-yard carry in the first quarter. The 35-year-old's final touch came when he was stopped for a one-yard loss on fourth down in the red zone. The New Orleans Saints' offense has been extremely inefficient all season, and things didn't improve with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough making his first career start versus Los Angeles. Hill's lack of consistent touches and the continued struggles of this offense should continue to limit his production. New Orleans will next face off with the division-rival Panthers in Week 10 next Sunday.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Totals 12 yards Week 8
Taysom Hill gathered in his only target for six yards and rushed twice for six yards during Sunday's 23-3 defeat versus the Buccaneers.Hill played his fewest number of offensive snaps this season with five. The 35-year-old has seen very limited playing time in his first four games since returning from a torn ACL four weeks ago, averaging 8.8 offensive snaps per game. He's also averaging just 3.5 touches per game, and he has not totaled over 15 yards in any of his four contests. Unless Hill sees a sharp increase in red-zone touches, he won't be worth any consideration by fantasy managers going forward. The New Orleans Saints face off with the Rams in Week 9 on Sunday.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Grabs two passes Week 7
Taysom Hill reeled in both of his targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 26-14 defeat against the Bears.Hill logged his first two catches of the season. The 35-year-old was on pace for a career high in receptions last season with 23 through eight games before he tore his ACL in Week 13. Hill's primary usage will still likely come as a rushing quarterback in short-yardage and change-of-pace situations, which was the scenario when he scored a one-yard rushing touchdown on his lone carry during the Week 6 loss to the Patriots. He'll need to start seeing more scoring opportunities in the red zone to have any reliable fantasy value, which is unlikely considering the inconsistency of the New Orleans Saints' offense. Hill will look to get back in the end zone during the Week 8 contest against the division-rival Buccaneers.

Saints' Taysom Hill: Plays nine snaps in 2025 debut
Taysom Hill logged six carries for minus-1 yard and completed his lone passing attempt for 19 yards during Sunday's 26-14 victory versus the Giants.Hill figured back into his role as a rushing quarterback and Swiss Army knife on offense during his first game back since suffering a torn ACL in Week 13 of the 2024 season. While he played only nine offensive snaps, the 35-year-old was featured nearly every time he got on the field, including multiple looks in short-yardage and third-down situations. Hill played at least 40 percent of offensive snaps in six of the eight regular-season games that he played last year, and he averaged 7.8 touches for 58.2 yards per contest in 2024. As he continues to ramp up his playing time, he should carry some value as a boom-or-bust option as a TE2 or FLEX play in most fantasy leagues, especially non-PPR formats. It will be worth monitoring how much, or if, his playing time increases during New Orleans' Week 6 matchup versus New England.
