JOSH HILL NEWS

First touchdown of 2020 Hill corralled both of his targets for 14 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 38-3 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Impact The receptions were a season high for Hill, who scored his first touchdown of the season in the blowout victory. Up 31-0, Hill hauled in a three-yarder mid-way through the fourth quarter to put the cherry on top of a dominant offensive performance. Unless New Orleans goes up big on San Francisco in Week 10, Hill is unlikely to return much fantasy value even in the deepest of leagues.

Brees throws for 4 TDs as Saints pound Buccaneers 38-3

NOVEMBER 8, 2020 • Associated Press

Makes one-yard reception Hill hauled in his lone target for a one-yard gain Monday in the Saints' 30-27 overtime win over the Chargers.

Impact Hill has logged either one or two targets in the Saints' four games this season, and his role is unlikely to change as the season progresses. The veteran is valued for his prowess as a run blocker, which may be enough for him to consistently play ahead of Adam Trautman in two-tight end sets, or when starter Jared Cook substitutes out of games.

Back at practice Hill dressed for practice Friday and got in limited work on the side, Amie Just of Nola.com reports.

Impact It was Hill's second day of this routine, and though he wasn't fully involved, it's a positive step after he missed the Saints' first two days of practice with an undisclosed "tweak." He's expected to serve his usual role as a blocker and occasional pass-catcher in 2020.

Sustains injury Monday Coach Sean Payton said Hill "tweaked" something and was forced to miss practice Monday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but it appears serious enough to force him out of valuable practice time. The 30-year-old was a solid No. 2 option at tight end behind Jared Cook last season, racking up 25 catches for 226 yards and three scores. Expect the Saints to update Hill's status as needed as they prepare for the 2020 season.

Tough path to roster spot Griffin (undisclosed) may have a tough time cracking the Saints' season-opening roster, Larry Holder of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jared Cook remains the starter at tight end and Josh Hill hasn't missed a game since 2016, and New Orleans also added Adam Trautman in the third round of April's draft. Griffin spent last season on injured reserve and hasn't seen game action since 2017.
