New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis didn't divulge a lot of information in the team's pre and post-draft press conferences, but one brief comment stood out after we went and listened to it again. When asked about star tight end/quarterback/wide receiver/fullback/special teams ace Taysom Hill, who suffered a season-ending ACL tear last December, Loomis spoke with a bit of an ominous tone about the 34-year old pro.
"Well, look, he had a serious knee injury, so it's gonna be a while," Loomis said.
Hill's salary cap hit remains second-highest on the team, at $17,986,500, only trailing behind Derek Carr ($20,462,000).
