Taysom Hill to start at QB for Saints against Cowboys Thursday night
NEW ORLEANS - Taysom Hill will get his first start of the season at quarterback for the Saints when the Cowboys visit the Superdome in primetime Thursday night.
ESPN reported the back-up quarterback and gadget player will line up under center instead of Trevor Siemian, who's gone 0-4 as a starter since leading the Saints to victory over the Buccaneers on Halloween night, the same game where Jameis Winston went down with a season-ending injury in the first half.
The Saints, now 5-6, have also dealt with other injuries during their winless stretch in November including Hill and Alvin Kamara, who've each missed multiple games.
The Saints and Cowboys will kick off at 7:20 Thursday night.
