The upcoming 2020 season will be a challenging one for Sean Payton’s New Orleans Saints. The Drew Brees-led outfit had a productive 2019 season in which they were crowned NFC South Division champions for the fourth consecutive season. Teddy Bridgewater served as a more than dependable backup after he led the Saints to a five-game winning streak between Week three to seven with Brees out injured.

This year Brees will have two swashbuckling quarterbacks to keep him on his toes. Jameis Winston comes in from NFC South rivals Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, there is another quarterback in New Orleans who is eager to learn from 41-year old Drew Brees.

Taysom Hill joined ESPN’s Mike Triplett on an interview recently. The New Orleans Saints veteran is okay with taking a back seat behind the great Drew Brees. In fact, he might be the third choice after the arrival of former Tampa Bay player Jameis Winston.

“There were false starts on the offensive line, there were miscommunications between the receivers and Tom Brady. To sum it up, there was a miscommunication between him and Rob Gronkowski. There’s been a lot of balls thrown from Tom Brady to Rob Gronkowski over the years. Does it mean that they’re all trying to work things out? But maybe Gronk wasn’t exactly where Brady wanted him and they had a discussion afterwards…Tom Brady did say to me, his concern is communication,” Hill told Triplett in an interview.

Hill further added, “Right now is kind of a special time for me, where I can hone in, really learn from Drew [Brees] on the field, really learn from the coaches, be coached hard. And it is a really fun time for me to do that. It’s a little disappointing not having preseason games for a guy like me, because it really is an opportunity to make sure that I’m getting live, game-time reps. But I think for now, the focus is on treating every practice rep I get like it’s a game situation.”

Drew Brees-led New Orleans start their 2020 campaign with a tough clash against NFC South rivals Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It will a battle of the two aging warhorses, Brees and Brady. Who will have the last laugh when these two teams meet at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on September 14, 2020?
