Saints reportedly will start rookie QB Ian Book vs. Dolphins on Monday

In Drew Brees' 15-year span with the New Orleans Saints, the franchise started only five different quarterbacks.

This season alone, following Brees' offseason retirement, the Saints are about to start their fourth different QB.

Up next this week: rookie Ian Book, the team's fourth-round pick in April who reportedly will start Monday against the Miami Dolphins.

According to reports, Book will replace the team's most recent QB starter, Taysom Hill, who is expected to land on the COVID-19 reserve list.
