Re: Official 2024 Saints OTA News and Discussion

I wonder if Holker could back up Taysom Hill on some designed plays. I am skeptical of designing a lot of plays for Taysom Hill because as his utilization goes up, especially in the backfield, I think his chance of injury will go up too. Taysom Hill is an enigma because he has been much healthier and more durable after turning 30 than before, but at the same time his utilization has been lower, frustrating his fans. If his utilization is suddenly increased again at 34yo and he becomes integral to the offense, you would want a backup for that role.

I suspect we are going to be seeing Taysom in a combination of the Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, and Kyle Juszczyk roles. I can't see Holker handling all of that. But, he could possibly handle that Kittle role alone. That in itself would be very valuable.

Re: Official 2024 Saints OTA News and Discussion

I always reset at the start of a new season. It's kind of like the seasons rolling around and training camp is Spring. With the offseason being the dead of winter. The Saints have me feeling pretty good about this season.

Even with a quiet offseason we have a lot of new faces out there. I'm going to hold off remembering who's who and what their number is until after training camp. Even then, I won't know everybody's number like I used to when I was younger.
