The Saints worry tight finish Taysom Hill has a season-ending knee harm, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media studies.
Hill will endure an MRI to substantiate the preliminary analysis.
He was injured on a 2-yard run on fourth-and-1 with 4:49 left. Linebacker Jared Verse was tackling Hill when Cobie Durant went low to take out Hill’s legs.
Durant’s helmet hit Hill squarely within the left knee, which bent again awkwardly.
Hill left on a cart, an indication the harm was critical.
“It’s the worst,” quarterback Derek Carr stated, by way of John Hendrix of SI.com. “I don’t know something. Y’all in all probability know greater than me. Just as a brother, as a good friend. It’s larger than soccer at that second.”
