Tallies first preseason catch Hill recorded one reception on two targets for 10 yards in Friday's 20-10 preseason loss to the Packers.
Impact Hill managed to make his preseason debut Friday after dealing with a series of injuries this offseason, starting with surgery to repair a Lisfranc issue. He subsequently bruised his ribs at the start of training camp and was sidelined for several days. He didn't make a significant impact on the game Friday, but he was on the field with the offensive unit that began the game and should compete for reps with Adam Trautman to begin the season.

Adapting to new role Hill (ribs) is adjusting to more of a tight end role as he rehabs from the Lisfranc injury he suffered late last season, Michael Hull of NewOrleansSaints.com reports.
Impact He was still wearing a non-contact jersey during Tuesday's practice as he also recovers from a less serious issue with his ribs that cropped up a little over a week ago. Hill was called on to make four starts at quarterback late last season after Jameis Winston tore his ACL in Week 8, with mixed results. Now that Winston is more than nine months removed from his injury and the team added veteran signal-caller Andy Dalton this offseason, it seems unlikely Hill will need to start under center again in 2022. He's working primarily as a tight end now, which means he'll compete with Adam Trautman to be on the receiving end of passes rather than on the delivering end. It still wouldn't be surprising to see Hill take some wildcat snaps around the goal-line though, making him an interesting bench stash in deeper leagues.

Impact This confirms his rib injury isn't too serious, though it's now cost him a full week of practice. Hill is mostly focusing on tight end this year, though coach Dennis Allen recently said Hill will still take some snaps at QB as well.

Injures ribs After absorbing a hit to the ribs Thursday, Hill is in line to miss some time, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Though Hill has moved past a Lisfranc injury to his left foot, he'll now be sidelined for an indefinite period of time with a rib issue. When healthy, the versatile 31-year-old will look to carve out a role in a New Orleans tight end corps that also includes Adam Trautman, Nick Vannett, Juwan Johnson and Lucas Krull, among others.

Ready for training camp Hill (foot) is "ready to go" for training camp, according to Saints GM Mickey Loomis.
Impact With Hill evidently having moved past a Lisfranc injury to his left foot, the versatile 31-year-old will now look to secure a role in the Saints offense, presumably as a tight end. Jameis Winston (knee), Andy Dalton and Ian Book will handle the team's QB duties in 2022.

Rehabbing during minicamp Saints head coach Dennis Allen said Hill (foot) is rehabbing at the team facility during minicamp, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Impact Hill was expected to miss 6-to-9 months after undergoing surgery in January to repair a Lisfranc injury of his left foot, which would put his return timetable close to Week 1. The dynamic playmaker is expected to focus solely on the tight-end position in 2022 after former head coach Sean Payton deployed Hill as a dual-threat quarterback. When healthy, Hill will compete with Adam Trautman, Nick Vannett and Juwan Johnson for snaps.
