Kellen Moore confirms suspicion about Taysom Hill's timetable to return from injury, and fans won't be happy to hear about it

Hill will have to miss at least the first four games of the season. For New Orleans, that is unfortunate. Plenty of folks are excited about the concept of Hill in Kellen Moore's offensive scheme. Moore has been deploying running backs in a wildcat formation at times in practice recently, so we could see those sort of plays with Hill included if he can make a healthy return later in the regular season.

Other injury list moves for New Orleans

Foster Moreau was also placed on PUP. He will also miss at least the first four games of the season.

As for injured reserve, defensive lineman John Ridgeway and offensive lineman Barry Wesley were placed on IR (expected to return). A handful of other players were placed on season-long injured reserve. Check out that list below.

• WR Bub Means
• OG Nick Saldiveri
• C Will Clapp
• TE Mason Pline
• OT Landon Young

New Orleans will have plenty of injuries, particularly to their depth, to navigate through to start the season. That being said, the overall roster is healthier than recent seasons as the Saints prepare for Week 1. Let's see how Kellen Moore's first season unfolds for the black and gold.
