Hill

In the Saints' first preseason game, Hill was utilized more as a receiver, playing each of the first six snaps in various positions: two snaps out wide, one in the slot, two at tight end, and one in the backfield.

In the second preseason game, Hill started at halfback over Jamaal Williams, taking six snaps at tight end, four at halfback, four at fullback, and one in the slot. He played 14 of 22 snaps with the starters, ran the ball five times, and scored a touchdown. While it's important to note that the Saints were without Alvin Kamara and Juwan Johnson in this game, Hill's versatile performance remains impressive.

Hill, the team’s highest-graded rusher, averaged 5.0 yards per attempt in 2023, a full yard more than any of their top three running backs. He finished 2022 with the ninth-most fantasy points among tight ends and 2023 with the 12th-most.
