Deonte Harris Appealing Three-Game Suspension

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris is appealing a three-game suspension from the NFL for a DUI arrest, according to sources.

Nick Vannett Scores Touchdown Against Bills

New Orleans Saints tight end Nick Vannett finished with a single reception for 11 yards and a touchdown on his only target in Thursday's loss to Buffalo. With fellow tight end Adam Trautman (knee) out for the foreseeable future with an MCL sprain, guys like Vannett are expected to see bigger roles going forward. While […]

Lil'Jordan Humphrey Paces Team With 47 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey posted three receptions for a season-high 47 yards on five targets in Thursday's loss to Buffalo. Humphrey came out of nowhere to pace the team in yards while posting his best total of the season. Nevertheless, the 23-year-old came into the contest with only two receptions for 31 […]

Deonte Harris Only Hauls In One Reception In Week 12

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris managed only one reception for nine yards on five targets in Thursday's loss to Buffalo.

Marquez Callaway Accumulates 24 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway mustered two receptions for 24 yards on four targets in Thursday's loss to Buffalo. Callaway has been disappointing all season and now he hasn't posted more than 37 yards in any of the last six contests. The WR is simply too inconsistent to trust in fantasy given he […]

Tre'Quan Smith Manages 31 Yards In Week 12

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith posted four receptions for 31 yards on five targets in Thursday's loss to Buffalo. The entire New Orleans offense struggled on Thursday and Smith's momentum from the past three weeks was ruined in Week 12. The WR had posted at least 44 yards in the prior three contests […]

Tony Jones Jr. Musters 27 Rushing Yards

New Orleans Saints running back Tony Jones Jr. managed 16 carries for 27 yards in the Thanksgiving night loss to Buffalo. Jones was the RB1 for the night as both Alvin Kamara (knee) and Mark Ingram II (knee) were inactive. Those two backs head the RB depth chart on New Orleans and even if one […]

Trevor Siemian Struggles Against Bills

New Orleans Saints quarterback Trevor Siemian struggled against Buffalo in the loss on Thursday night, going 17-for-29 for 163 yards, one touchdown, and one pick.

Nick Vannett Gets Saints On The Scoreboard In Week 12

New Orleans Saints tight end Nick Vannett made the most of his opportunity for playing time versus the Bills in Week 12, pulling in an 11-yard catch from Trevor Siemian early in the fourth quarter. However, it is likely too little, too late, as the Saints failed to convert a subsequent two-point conversion attempt, keeping […]

Mark Ingram II Has An "Uphill Battle" To Play Against Buffalo

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II (knee) remains questionable ahead of Thursday's matchup versus Buffalo. However, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the veteran still has a chance to play, although it will be an "uphill battle." Ingram continues to deal with residual swelling, so even if he does see the field, the […]

Brett Maher - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints kicker Brett Maher shouldn't be in starting lineups against Buffalo in Week 12. Maher went 1-for-1 in field goals and 2-for-3 in extra points in his first game with New Orleans last week. The kicking carousel continues for the Saints and Maher is just the latest guy to be added to it. […]

Saints Defense Should Be Benched Against Bills

The New Orleans Saints defense is not a strong play in Week 12 against Buffalo. They are going to face off against a talented QB in Josh Allen who, though has been struggling lately, is still an explosive QB if he gets hot. The Bills also have a trio of solid wideouts in Stefon Diggs, […]

Juwan Johnson - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson shouldn't be in starting lineups against Buffalo in Week 12. Johnson will now take on a bigger role with fellow TE Adam Trautman out for four to six weeks due to an MCL sprain. The youngster started off the season alright, but has since had a nonexistent role […]

Deonte Harris - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris shouldn't be in starting lineups in Week 12. Harris was performing well before Week 11, getting at least 52 yards in four of the five games prior to this past Sunday's contest against the Eagles. Nevertheless, the WR laid a dud against Philly, posting only two receptions for […]

Marquez Callaway - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway shouldn't be in starting lineups against Buffalo in Week 12. The WR hasn't posted more than 37 yards in any of the past five games and has generally posted underwhelming production all season. Buffalo allows the fewest fantasy points to WRs, so it's best to look elsewhere for […]

Tre'Quan Smith - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith is nothing more than a flex play in Week 12 against Buffalo. Smith has been playing better in the last three games, getting at least 44 yards in those contests while also seeing at least seven targets in the last two games. It's safe to say he is […]

Trevor Siemian - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints quarterback Trevor Siemian should be well off the fantasy radar heading into the Thanksgiving day clash against Buffalo. Siemian had been performing alright up until Week 11 and then struggled against the Eagles this past Sunday, posting 214 yards, three touchdowns, and two picks. The QB has never been consistent in the […]

Saints Defense Will Be Without Marcus Davenport

New Orleans Saints defensive end Marcus Davenport (shoulder) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Thursday night's game against the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving. Defensive end Tanoh Kpassagnon (ankle) was also ruled out. Davenport checks in as the No. 26 defensive lineman in IDP leagues with 17 solo tackles, 5.5 sacks and […]
