After being upset in a Wild Card Playoff to the Minnesota Vikings, the New Orleans Saints had a difficult situation to assimilate in the quarterback department.
All three signal-callers, Drew Brees, Teddy Bridgewater and Taysom Hill, were free agents at the start of the 2020 league year in March, and the Saints could keep two, but not all three, of them because of their salary cap hits.
At the time, Brees’ future was in question, Bridgewater would be a coveted signal-caller in free agency and Hill believed he could be an NFL starter as well.
Brees re-signed with the Saints, Bridgewater ended up signing with the division-rival Carolina Panthers and New Orleans placed a first-round tender on Hill.
