One key member of the New Orleans Saints wasn’t celebrating in the locker room after they beat the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium. Saints head coach Dennis Allen said Taysom Hill was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation after suffering a chest injury in their win over the Cowboys.

“Taysom had a chest injury,” Allen said. “I think they took him for some extra evaluations, so he went to the hospital to be evaluated further. I think more precautionary, but we’ll see how that goes.”

Allen was short on details when pressed for clarity on Hill’s condition: “I just know chest injury, and they wanted to make sure that they went in and evaluated it further. Maybe some imaging.”

Hopefully it isn’t too serious, but it’s worth dialing in any time a player needs to visit the hospital with an injury. We’ll share an update on his status as soon as it becomes available.
