Taysom Hill is 1 of 1 you don't just go out and find a backup of him

Mahommes is 1 of 1, Brees was 1 of 1, Brady was 1 of 1, yet they all had backups. Backups are backups because they can't aren't as talented as the people they are backing up. No backup can do everything as well as the person they are backing up can do things.

There's no one known right now that is a good as Hill at everything he's good at, but there are some who are good enough as a backup plan.
