The Facts: HC Dennis Allen said in March that Hill’s focus would be at tight end with Winston as their starting quarterback and Andy Dalton as the primary backup. But the do-it-all Swiss Army knife still is going to get snaps at quarterback and other positions, Allen said Thursday.

Diehards Line: “I look at Taysom Hill as a weapon in a lot of different areas,” Allen said. “We talk all the time about position-less players on defense. I don’t know that ‘position-less’ is the right word for Taysom. He’s a multiple-position player. I look at him as a weapon in the passing game. I look at him as a weapon playing at the quarterback position. I look at him with the ball in his hands. I look at him on special teams in a lot of different areas. And so there’s a ton of places where Taysom Hill can help this football team win, and we want to utilize him in all those different roles. ...” Hill has played quarterback, receiver, tight end, running back and on special teams. Former Saints quarterback Drew Brees has said Hill should get “10 to 15 snaps at quarterback a game at a minimum, just with the threat he is.”
