Foster Moreau Leads Saints In Receiving Yards

New Orleans Saints tight end Foster Moreau was the team's unlikely leader in receiving yards in their game against the Green Bay Packers on Monday night. If that isn't a strong enough indicator of how the Saints' offense fared, the fact that he needed just 33 yards to lead the team should make it a […]

Jordan Mims Has Busy Night In Blowout

New Orleans Saints running back Jordan Mims was the unexpected leader in targets and receptions in Monday's 35-0 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Mims caught five of his eight targets but finished with a meager 16 receiving yards. Mims also had four carries for 16 rushing yards, second only to the 28 yards that […]

Kendre Miller Has Disappointing Night In Blowout Loss

Those hoping that New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller would be the late-season add that would propel fantasy teams to the championship round of the fantasy playoffs were sorely disappointed on Monday night. Miller handled eight carriers and gained just 15 rushing yards in the 35-0 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He also […]

Spencer Rattler Commits Two Turnovers In MNF Loss

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler went 15-for-30 for 153 passing yards and added 28 yards on five rushes in Monday's 34-0 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Rattler also threw an interception and lost a fumble in the defeat, which had the dubious distinction of being the NFL's first shutout of the 2024 season. […]

Steer Clear Of New Orleans D/ST Against Packers

Fantasy managers who rolled with the New Orleans Saints D/ST in the last two weeks were pleasantly surprised by their sudden uptick in production. Holding an anemic New York Giants offense to 11 points in Week 14 and registering eight sacks in Week 15 provided solid fantasy returns. Those remaining in contention for a fantasy […]

Blake Grupe Unappealing In Week 16

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe went 2-for-2 on field goal attempts and converted his sole extra point try in Week 15. Grupe was good from 41 and 51 yards away and he is now 14-for-16 from 40 or more yards out. It was an encouraging effort after his 0-for-2 showing in Week 14. Despite […]

Juwan Johnson Off Injury Report For Week 16

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (foot) was limited in practice to start the week but participated in full on Saturday.

Kevin Austin Jr. May See More Action On Monday

With so many injuries to the New Orleans Saints wide receiver room, Kevin Austin Jr. might be the team's next primary pass-catcher.

Joining them on the injury […]

Chris Olave Out For Week 16

The New Orleans Saints have decided to keep wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) on the sidelines for at least one more week.

He is listed as out on the team's […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Questionable For Week 16

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (chest, illness) is listed as questionable for the team's Monday night matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Valdes-Scantling did not practice all week. Originally sidelined on Thursday with a chest injury, he was also dealing with an illness that kept him out of the subsequent practices. With Rashid […]

Jamaal Williams Still A Fade In Week 16

Running back Jamaal Williams could see more time on the field when the New Orleans Saints face the Green Bay Packers on Monday. Alvin Kamara (groin) has been declared out after suffering an injured adductor in Week 15. Fellow backup Kendre Miller shouldered the backfield load for the rest of the way in that game […]

Kendre Miller Set Up For Lead Role

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller should operate as the team's primary option out of the backfield in Week 16. Lead running back Alvin Kamara (groin) exited last week's game against the Commanders and was later diagnosed with an adductor injury and did not practice at all this week. After Kamara's early departure in […]

Juwan Johnson Comes Up Empty On Two-Point Attempt

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson was a non-factor for most of the day in Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Commanders. He finished with two catches for 12 yards on three targets. Johnson did not see his first target until the fourth quarter, on a shot over the middle that was well off the […]

Cedrick Wilson Jr. Throws Touchdown Pass

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. had a greater impact throwing the football than catching it in Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Commanders. Wilson threw a 21-yard touchdown pass to Alvin Kamara in the third quarter. In his typical role as a pass catcher, he failed to log a reception and was targeted […]

Foster Moreau Catches Last-Second TD In Loss

New Orleans Saints tight end Foster Moreau caught a one-yard touchdown pass as the game clock expired in Sunday's loss to the Commanders. The Saints could not convert the ensuing two-point attempt and lost 20-19. Moreau saw four targets, all in the fourth quarter, and caught all of them for 39 receiving yards and the […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Leads Team In Targets

With Derek Carr (concussion, hand) sidelined with his injuries sustained […]

Kendre Miller Is Saints Leading Rusher In Loss

Running back Kendre Miller ended up as the Saints' leading rusher in Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Washington Commanders. Miller's 46 rushing yards on his nine carries were enough to lead the team in both categories. He did not catch his one target but handled three kickoffs, gaining a total of 83 return yards. Miller […]

Spencer Rattler Throws TD In Loss

The New Orleans Saints brought in quarterback Spencer Rattler to replace spot starter Jake Haener at halftime of Sunday's game against the Commanders.

New Orleans D/ST Not Worth The Risk In Week 15

The New Orleans Saints' defense and special teams gave a solid effort in Week 14. Against the Giants, the Saints allowed a season-low 11 points to their opponent, recorded two sacks, and pulled down their first interception since Week 10. The competition in Week 15 will be much tougher, as New Orleans is set to […]

Blake Grupe A Week 15 Fade

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe converted both of his extra point attempts in Week 14 but he missed both of his field goal tries. It is worth noting that the misses were both from over 50 yards out. The first, a 53-yarder, had the distance but veered left of the uprights. The second was […]

Foster Moreau Not A Fantasy Asset In Week 15

New Orleans Saints tight end Foster Moreau has not been a fantasy asset so far this season and that trend will continue into Week 15. Moreau's receiving production is so light that he has hit double-digit PPR points in just one game this season despite scoring a touchdown in three separate games. The fact that […]

Juwan Johnson Off Injury Report For Week 15

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (foot) was limited in practice twice to start the week but logged a full practice on Friday.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. Not Startable For Week 15

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. has been unable to command an increased role despite the multiple injuries in the team's wide receiver room. Even with top targets Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee) on injured reserve, Wilson's presence in the Saints' offense has been limited, with just four receptions for 71 […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Unlikely To See Another Boom Week

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling's recent run of fantasy relevance appears to be over. Over the Saints' three games from Week 10 to Week 13 (bye Week 12), he compiled 232 receiving yards and four touchdowns on just seven receptions. The party came to an end in Week 14, though. Not only was […]

Kendre Miller A Bench Stash At Best

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller scored a rough-and-tumble touchdown in his return from injured reserve in Week 14. Miller out-touched Jamaal Williams 10-to-5 backing up Alvin Kamara (illness) and saw a 17-to-5 advantage in their snap counts, as well. Kamara logged consecutive DNPs to start Week 15 which allowed Miller to see more […]

Jake Haener Starting In Week 15

The New Orleans Saints will give quarterback Jake Haener the start on Sunday against the Washington Commanders.

Juwan Johnson Catches TD Pass In Win

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson caught four of his five targets for a season-high 50 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 14-11 win over the Giants.

Alvin Kamara Has Inefficient Showing In Win

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara handled 17 carries for 44 rushing yards and caught all five of his targets for 35 receiving yards in Sunday's 14-11 win over the Giants.
