3 New Orleans Saints quarterback options after Jameis Winston injury news

Mar. 22, 2023 – 28:20 – The New Orleans Saints were able to pull off a huge home win against the defending champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Unfortunately, it came at a rather major cost. Starting quarterback Jameis Winston exited the game with a knee injury early in the second quarter and didn’t return. After the game, Saints head coach Sean Payton told reporters that the injury was significant and potentially season-ending. Talk about a downer in New Orleans after a strong performance on the field. With Taysom Hill sidelined to a concussion, veteran journeyman Trevor Siemian replaced Winston under center. He played pretty well, completing 16-of-29 passes for 159 yards with a touchdown and zero interceptions. In no way does this mean Siemian is even a stopgap option for the 5-2 Saints. Meanwhile, rookie mid-round pick Ian Book is not anywhere near ready to see regular-season action. It’s in this that we look at three quarterback options for the Saints heading into Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline.
