    When Taysom Hill pulls on his jersey for the New Orleans Saints'exhibition game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday night (Aug. 9), there will be a moment of reflection.

    No. 7 is more than a uniform number for the second-year quarterback.

    It is a testimonial to his older brother, Dexter, who wore No. 7 during a quarterback career at Scottsdale (Arizona) Community College, Northern Iowa and Dixie State universities. When Dexter died unexpectedly in 2016 at the age of 31, Taysom changed his jersey to No. 7 as a way of honoring him.
