Taysom Hill, the tight end for the New Orleans Saints, exited the game against the Atlanta Falcons in the second quarter due to an abdomen injury and was later ruled out. Prior to his departure, Hill had impressive performances, scoring two rushing touchdowns and contributing significantly to the offense.

This marks a challenging season for Hill, who had previously suffered a chest injury in Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys. He was taken to a hospital for evaluation after this latest injury.

Additionally, the Saints faced further challenges with linebacker Willie Gay also leaving the game early due to a hand injury, compounding their injury woes.
