2023 Fantasy Outlook
Hill is officially listed as a tight end in many fantasy leagues, though the majority of his value comes from plays where he takes the snap. He’s set to reprise his role as a jack of all trades and wildcat quarterback in New Orleans, though the Saints may be more reluctant to sub out pricey new quarterback Derek Carr in key spots. Jameis Winston is still around as the backup, so the dream fantasy scenario of the TE-eligible Hill starting at quarterback is at least two injuries away. Hill should continue to get most of his playing time in red-zone and short-yardage packages, and he has run in 20 touchdowns over the past three seasons while throwing for 10 and catching three. Like last year, Hill – who turns 33 in August – could have a few big games while barely seeing the ball in others. He had only 77 receiving yards in 2022, and of his 575 yards and seven touchdowns on the ground, 193 rushing yards and four touchdowns came in two games. Read Past Outlooks
Adjusts contract details
Hill restructured his contract Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The move, coupled with a restructuring of linebacker Demario Davis' contract, gives the Saints close to $13 million in cap space. Despite playing in four more games this season, Hill saw almost 100 less offensive snaps than 2021, but he still set a career high in total yards (652), specifically emerging as a dangerous ball carrier to the tune of 6.0 yards per carry (on 96 attempts). The Saints are expected to be in the hunt for one of the top quarterbacks on the open market, meaning Hill likely will continue to operate in his super-utility role moving forward.

The versatile Hill started five games at quarterback last season, providing a major fantasy boost
in formats in which he was eligible at other positions. But new coach Dennis Allen is apparently
not as big a fan of Hill as a dual-threat quarterback as former coach Sean Payton. Allen said in
March that Hill will no longer play quarterback full-time and instead will focus on tight end. Hill
should still take occasional snaps in the Saints’ version of the wildcat formation, in addition to H-
back. But prior to taking over as the starting quarterback last year, Hill had 104 yards and two
touchdowns rushing, four catches for 52 receiving yards and 56 passing yards in seven games
— numbers which don’t warrant consideration in most fantasy formats. Hill might not even be
ready to start the season as he recovers from a Lisfranc injury, and Adam Trautman is the
starting tight end with wideouts Michael Thomas, Jarvis Landry and Chris Olave vying for
targets. Some fantasy managers in deeper leagues might dedicate a roster spot to Hill for the
small chance he’s asked to step back in under center. If reports are to be believed, though, both
Jameis Winston (knee) and Andy Dalton would have to be unavailable for that to be an option.
