My Take
Taysom Hill is one of my favourite kinds of athletes: the one who refuses to be boxed in. A star quarterback at BYU, he was cut by the Packers at final roster decisions in 2017, signed quickly with the Saints, and reinvented himself as a do-everything tight end who can run, throw, block and catch. In a sport built on rigid specialisation, choosing to stay a Swiss Army knife takes real nerve. The undrafted, scrap-your-way-in arc is exactly the story I root for, and Hill's versatility makes him genuinely unique to watch.
