The Chicago Bears search for another tight end will continue. In what was a relatively surprising move, the New Orleans Saints decided to match the Bears offer to tight end Josh Hill and will keep him in New Orleans.
The Saints have some serious cap space and adding Hill’s salary is going to mean they are only going to have to do more work to come in under the cap, but the Saints have plenty of their own questions at the tight end position, so letting go of a 25-year old player that is useful and does have some upside potential in the end was too much for the Saints to allow.
