Trevor Siemian

Per news report, Trevor has been named the starter on Sunday.

Makes perfect sense to me.

I hadn’t seen that yet… Awesome news! The Failclowns will be a good team to let him go against and get comfortable.

If he's not happy, he can simply walk at the end of the season.

Not difficult at all. Everything after the end of this season is void. It was a tool that served two purposes. The extra years facilitate the Saints lowering the cap hit this year. Also NFL rules prohibit renegotiating contracts at a higher rate within a 12 month period. If TH7 had won the QB1 job, done a good job this year, then the Saints could negotiate for the future up to the $140 million cap that was applied to the void years. But no matter what they are void and TH7 can walk at the end of this season.

They said the same thing on NFL Radio a short time ago. It looks like either Ian Book gets backup duties or Taysom abandons his joker role. I hope it's the former because we need the ball in Taysom's hands as much as possible.

Siemian as the starter is a good move. Because if Hill is the starting QB we are asking him to be on the field all of the time for the offense - and being the full time QB is much much more mentally taxing than Hill's joker role where he is shuttling between the field and the sideline. That's a big concern for someone recovering from a concussion.

I could see him as Qb2 for this week if they don’t want him jumping right back into Joker coming off a concussion. After this week I can see him back in Joker. Any way you cut it he will probably have limited touches. It’s not like the Falcons are world beaters.
