New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill discussed his brand-new extension with the team, calling it the best move for both parties.

Hill already had a one-year tender on the table for the 2020 season. Now he'll potentially make $21 million, with $16 million guaranteed at signing, between 2020 and 2021, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
