The Saints emerged victorious in Sunday’s game, but it was Tucker’s wild comments that stole the spotlight. On air, Tucker confidently stated, “I’m not kidding when I tell you I think he’s one of the best football players ever.

Taysom Hill has undeniably showcased his versatility as a quarterback, wide receiver, and tight end in recent years, making him a unique asset to the Saints’ roster. However, it’s worth noting that Hill primarily serves as a role player, not a full-time starter.
This has left many football fans perplexed by Tucker’s comments, as Hill doesn’t consistently log a significant number of snaps per game.
What an absolutely ridiculous statement and I love Taysom Hill https://t.co/oelkr3y08E

While the 33-year old’s athleticism and adaptability are undeniable, labeling him as one of the all-time greats is simply bizarre.
