This morning Sean Payton was interviewed by Mike Greenberg.
I made this transcript about the role of Taysom Hill this year:
"Yeah, I think the role is pretty clear, and first and foremost we still view him as a quarterback and we spent a lot of time of this offseason discussing our vision for him this season at quarterback but then also at the "F" position, and I mean by that Mike, is that slash tight end, receiver. He is a tremendous blocker, he is physical. I don't know that people, I don't think that people realize how fast he is. He is probably one of the 3-4 fastest guys on our team.
So, he'll play that "F" position , he'll certainly be involved in the kicking game. It's one of the things he takes pride in and is very good at, and then the unique situation with our team and our quarterback Drew Brees is he's announced he is coming back for his final season.
I think Taysom sees himself as a starting quarterback in this league and we do too. Now, because of what we choose to do with him in game day we have to carry a third quarterback. Just based on the nature, the amount of plays he is playing at any given time if something would happen to this throwing hand, then all of a sudden you are really down to your starting quarterback. So we'll have a third quarterback that will be up each game."
