Report: Saints likely start Taysom Hill at quarterback vs. Cowboys

The Saints are apparently set to unveil a third starting quarterback of the season on Thursday Night Football.

Taysom Hill is taking first-team quarterback reps at Saints practice this week and is likely to start against the Dallas Cowboys, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday. 

Trevor Siemian, who has started the last four games in place of the injured Jameis Winston, is taking second team reps.

Hill went 3-1 last season behind center in place of injured starter Drew Brees. The 31-year old agreed to a contract extension earlier last week with the deal involving more salary if the talented hybrid performer serves as starting quarterback.
