New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill took to Instagram on Thursday evening to share a heartfelt update regarding his injury.

On December 1st, Hill suffered a season-ending ACL injury in the team’s 21-14 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He was placed on injury reserve last Friday.

Hill has been noticeably silent, making his statement via his Instagram the first since the injury. His statement is below.

It’s times like these that cause you to take a step back and reflect on so many things.

It’s no secret that I’m disappointed with the injury that I suffered against the Rams a couple of weeks ago. Despite the injury, it’s given me an opportunity to realize how much this game means to me and what it has given me and my family!

Words can’t express how grateful I am for the Saints fan base and the way they have embraced me and my family. Sunday against the Rams was an emotional day, but there was no greater emotion felt than when I heard our fan base cheer as I left the field. Who Dat nation is really one of a kind in the best way possible and I thank you!

As for my future, I will be having surgery to repair my damaged knee and step on the road to recovery. I am confident that through the help of an incredible medical staff I will make a full recovery
