The New Orleans Saints will have to forge a new offensive identity this week, as Drew Brees begins his stint on IR. Taysom Hill will be taking the reins in this offense over Jameis Winston, and after throwing just 18 passes in his career will make his first start at quarterback. Luckily he will have Alvin Kamara to lean on this week, but he will not be at 100% as he plays through a bone bruise in his foot. They may work Latavius Murray into the lineup more and limit Kamara's touches despite a positive performance last week. The Saints wideout core is back together as Michael Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders and Tre’Quan Smith should all take the field, and this is good news for Hill in his first NFL start.
