A vital New Orleans Saints offense member appeared on their Week 3 injury report just days before they’ll play the Green Bay Packers. The Saints and Packers will enter the game with several notable offensive players battling or missing due to injuries.
The Packers are expected to be without starting offensive linemen David Bakhtiari and Elgton Jenkins against the Saints. Running back Aaron Jones doesn’t look hopeful in Week 3 after missing practice Wednesday due to a lingering hamstring injury.
The New Orleans Saints place Taysom Hill on injury report
Saints running back Jamaal Williams injured his hamstring against the Carolina Panthers in Week 2. But one of the biggest storylines of the Saints injury report on Wednesday was at quarterback. According to a statement by the Packers, quarterback Taysom Hill was listed on the injury report.
Hill has limited practice with a knee injury.

The Green Bay Packers could catch a break
Hill was featured a lot in the Saints win Monday night. He ran the ball nine times for 75 yards and completed one pass for eight yards. Saints head coach Dennis Allen has said he wants to get Hill more involved in the offense.
Hill’s injury is a minor concern for the Saints, as he’s at least practicing in a limited capacity. We’ll see if he progresses to being a full participant later this week.
