What happened: Hill spent nine seasons in New Orleans in a hybrid role across offense and special teams. His playing future remains undecided.
Why it matters: The decision removes a quarterback, rushing and receiving option from the Saints' plans. It also settles a lingering roster question before the preseason.
By the numbers: Hill appeared in 118 games with 53 starts for New Orleans, including 13 games and four starts in 2025.
What to watch: Hill's next step is whether he signs elsewhere or ends his playing career. New Orleans must redistribute his hybrid snaps during preseason work.
