Saints Activate Taysom Hill and Foster Moreau for Week 5 vs. Giants

New Orleans seeks a lift from two veterans returning from late-2024 knee injuries.

Overview

  • The Saints moved Hill and Moreau from the reserve/PUP list to the active roster, and both are expected to play Sunday against New York.
  • Hill is now listed at quarterback and is expected to back up Spencer Rattler with a varied role on offense and special teams under coach Kellen Moore.
  • New Orleans placed wide receiver Trey Palmer on injured reserve, waived tight end Moliki Matavao, elevated linebacker Eku Leota, and ruled defensive tackle John Ridgeway III out for Sunday.
  • Hill tore his ACL with additional ligament damage last December and Moreau sustained a late-2024 knee injury, sidelining both for the first four games of 2025.
  • The 0-4 Saints hope the returns improve red-zone and short-yardage efficiency as they host the 1-3 Giants at the Caesars Superdome.
