Report: Saints Sign Taysom Hill to Unique, Hybrid Extension

The Saints have signed quarterback Taysom Hill to a unique, hybrid contract extension unlike any other NFL contract, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The four-year deal can be worth anywhere between $40 million and $95 million with $22.5 million guaranteed.

The unique aspect of the extension is that depending on what position Hill plays is how much he stands to make. Hill, who is listed as a quarterback but is used as a utility player, will earn $40 million in base salary but can earn an additional $55 million if he transitions to the team's starting signal-caller role and fulfills that need for the team over the next four seasons, per ESPN.
