Summary

The New Orleans Saints sign Taysom Hill to a unique "hybrid" contract, the USFL is on it's way back, and Monday Night Football features the Tampa Bay Buccaneers asserting dominance over the New York Giants. Taysom Hill's new contract keeps him in New Orleans with Sean Payton and the gang for up to the next four years. But his contract isn't so simple. How the offensive weapon's role will dictate the team's spending. The USFL is on its way back featuring the Michigan Panthers, Birmingham Stallions, New Jersey Generals, Houston Gamblers, Philadelphia Stars, New Orleans Breakers, Pittsburgh Maulers, and Tampa Bay Bandits. The former home of Herschel Walker, Sam Mills, Reggie White, Steve Young, Jim Kelly and other NFL legends returns this spring. What it means for the NFL and why we're so excited about it. The Tampa Bay Bucs absolutely thrash Daniel Jones and the New York Giants. Is it time to start over in the Big Apple?

1:25.9	One if he plays quarterback, one if he doesn't. If he
1:28.4	doesn't, it's like a four year, $40 million deal. And then if he does become the quarterback,

1:37.2	make sense, the $55 million, like if he plays quarterback. If he's your starting quarterback,
