New Orleans Saints remained aggressive when Trevor Siemian entered game after Taysom Hill injury ' Turning Point of the Game from NFL Week 18 Siemian threw a touchdown two plays after replacing Hill
JANUARY 10, 2022 • NEWORLEANSSAINTS.COM
Wins in relief Siemian completed nine of 15 passes for 71 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 30-20 win over the Falcons.
Impact Siemian was forced into the game after Taysom Hill (foot) exited with a foot injury in the first half. The Saints relied heavily on Alvin Kamara and the run game, though Siemian was effective when called upon. He led the offense to the end zone twice, throwing for scores from 13 and five yards away. After serving as the backup and making spot starts in New Orleans for the 2021 season, Siemian will hit free agency this offseason and will likely look for another backup role around the league.

Saints' Hill, Davis, 9 others are back, Williams to reserve
Saints quarterback Taysom Hill and linebacker Demario Davis are among 11 New Orleans players who’ve rejoined the active roster from the COVID-19 reserve listDECEMBER 30, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Removed from COVID-19 list The Saints activated Siemian (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Impact Likewise for Taysom Hill (illness), allowing the Saints to have a more desirable Hill-Siemian setup at the top of the quarterback depth chart heading into Sunday's game against the Panthers. Siemian will serve as Hill's backup moving forward, while Week 16 starter Ian Book slides back down to third in the pecking order.

Saints quarterbacks Taysom Hill and Trevor Siemian test positive for COVID-19 - The Boston Globe Hill and Siemian were among nine players for New Orleans placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
DECEMBER 23, 2021 • BOSTONGLOBE.COM
Added to bloated COVID-19 list The Saints placed Siemian (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Impact Siemian was one of nine New Orleans players added to the list Thursday, all the result of positive COVID-19 tests, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. If Siemian is vaccinated and asymptomatic, he'll be eligible to play Monday against the Dolphins, but the Saints already seem to be proceeding as though neither he nor top signal-caller Taysom Hill (illness) will be available to return from the list Week 16. With neither Hill nor his top backup expected to play, rookie fourth-round pick Ian Book is the likely candidate to start in his NFL debut Monday night, in a game that has major playoff implications for both the Saints and the Dolphins.

Bound for COVID-19 list Siemian tested positive for the coronavirus and will be placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list later Thursday, Jeff Duncan of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact The Saints are dealing with a minor COVID-19 outbreak at the moment, as Siemian is set to join tight ends Adam Trautman and Juwan Johnson on the list, while head coach Sean Payton and multiple executives in the organization have also tested positive in recent days. If Siemian isn't able to test out of NFL's COVID-19 protocol prior to Monday's game against the Dolphins, rookie Ian Book would serve as the backup to starting quarterback Taysom Hill.
