The Taysom Hill experiment doesn’t seem to be working out too well for the New Orleans Saints.
Two weeks ago, the Saints gave Hill a creative “hybrid” contract extension that raised eyebrows among NFL fans.
New Orleans’ QB Taysom Hill signed a unique four-year, hybrid-type of contract extension that could be worth anywhere between $40 million and $95 million, depending on the position he plays, and includes $22.5 million guaranteed, sources tell ESPN.

On Thursday night against the Cowboys, Hill made his first start of the season, and while he did look good at times during the game, he ended up throwing four interceptions in the team’s loss.

Fans immediately mocked Hill and the Saints after the team’s latest loss.
Taysom Hill is one of the highest paid running backs in the history of football.

We might have to stop calling Sean Payton a great offensive mind if he continues to try and convince us that Taysom Hill is a starting NFL quarterback.

Taysom Hill playing QB is indistinguishable from a 13-year-old controlling Michael Vick in Madden 04
