The New Orleans Saints utility man Taysom Hill took a hard hit to the head as a receiver and had to be carted off. It would appear he will be checked for a concussion.
#Saints' Taysom Hill just took a scary shot to the helmet and he's being carted off. Hill was able to get on the cart on his own, but a vicious hit. #NOvsWSH pic.twitter.com/3CZmTnvqp5

Hill has been providing a good offensive spark for the Saints this season, but this hit will likely keep him out for the rest of this game at least. There will be a hefty fine, as the hit was flagged as it should have been.
Jameis Winston has turned the ball over twice in this game, but also hit Deonte Harris for a 72-yard touchdown, while Alvin Kamara ran for a 24-yard touchdown. Winston will need to keep from turning the ball over with the score 13-13 in the second quarter.
