Who Should I Start? Taysom Hill or Bryce Young

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has seen his role in the offense expanded over the last few games. Last week, Hill saw a season-high 10 rushing attempts in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Sadly, Hill didn't have much success as he finished with 17 yards for a lousy 1.7 yards per carry. The expectation is that Hill is going to see a larger role again in Week 13 with Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) ruled out. Devin Neal will take over as the lead back, but Hill should see chances as well. It wouldn't be shocking to see Hill having double digit carries again, but his lack of success this season is a concern. Fantasy managers shouldn't trust him as anything more than a touchdown-dependent option for the upcoming matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

ESPN's Dan Graziano writes that he expects the Carolina Panthers to pick up quarterback Bryce Young's fifth-year option for the 2027 season, but that there is uncertainty about Young's future in Carolina beyond his rookie contract. The number one overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, Young has rebounded from a horrendous rookie season over the past two years, most notably leading Carolina to a 7-5 record in his starts this season. However, questions remain about the 24-year-old's true franchise-leading upside. Across 12 starts in 2025, Young has completed 63.4% of his pass attempts for 2,337 yards, 18 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. He hasn't exactly had an amazing supporting cast around him in Carolina, but Young has also averaged an extremely underwhelming six yards per pass attempt across his 42 career NFL games. It appears as though the Panthers are committed to Young in the short term, but remain in wait-and-see mode as far as handing him a contract extension.
