The New Orleans Saints have wrapped up their first practice ahead of their Week 3 matchup with the Seattle Seahawks. The Saints had three players absent on Thursday, including right tackle Taliese Fuaga, who is dealing with a back injury. New Orleans was also without defensive end Chase Young and left guard Dillon Radunz. Young was absent for the team’s first two matchups and is hoping to return for Week 3, but remains out of practice. Left guard Trevor Penning returned to practice for the first time this season and was limited.

Yesterday, per Nick Underhill, the New Orleans Saints held tryouts with four players, all of whom were offensive linemen, three of them being tackles.

Sometimes, when tryouts happen, the group can consist of all different positions, and there is really no pattern. The other times, the team will try out a specific position due to bad play, a player being cut, or… an injury. If we look at the positions, tackle is the position the Saints focused on, and William Sherman, the one guard, has played tackle before. Keeping this in mind, remember that RT Taliese Fuaga had been dealing...

The New Orleans Saints are hitting the road for the first time this season as they visit the Seattle Seahawks. Here’s a quick look at what either outcome would mean for the black and gold.

If the Saints win

Spencer Rattler has looked good in the first two games of 2025. A win here would mean a deserved first victory for the second-year quarterback, as he’ll likely need to continue his strong play if the Saints are to come away on top.

It would also mark Kellen Moore’s first win as head coach and lift the spirits of everyone...

It’s Week 3 and the New Orleans Saints (0-2) find themselves on the road this weekend to face the Seattle Seahawks (1-1) at Lumen Field.

It all started for these two teams back on November 21, 1976, which saw the Saints defeat the Seahawks by a whopping 51-21 at King County Stadium, better known as the Kingdome. The stadium was demolished in 2000, and Lumen Field was built on the site, which opened in 2002.

Sunday will be the 16th time that these two franchises have faced one another in the regular season, with Seattle winning the total series 10-8....

The New Orleans Saints will hit the road for the first time this season, taking on the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field on Sunday afternoon. Another first for this season, the Saints will wear their “Color Rush” uniforms and brand-new white helmets in Week 3.

The Saints Color Rush uniforms debuted back in 2016, instantly becoming a fan favorite. However, the white helmet is new to the lineup, with team making the announcement back in July about adding another alternate helmet.

We could see this color combination a couple more times this season, as the NFL has adjusted its uniform...

After a tough week for the division, the NFC South was able to bounce back and win two out of its four games.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tampa Bay finished the week with one of the Monday night games, theirs being against the Houston Texans. Once again, some late-game heroics put the Buccaneers over the top, with the score ending 20-19. This game was very similar to last week’s, where the run defense did really well against the opposition. The pass defense also did well against QB CJ Stroud. On offense, Baker Mayfield looked consistent and stayed away from turnovers,...

Interesting that the Saints worked out four offensive linemen.

The New Orleans Saints fell to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday at Caesars Superdome in Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season. Here are three overreactions from this weekend’s matchup:

Carl Granderson will lead the NFL in sacks

To open his seventh professional campaign, the 28-year-old former UDFA out of Wyoming is tied for the league lead with four sacks, recording two in each of the first two weeks.

With Chase Young still sidelined by a calf injury, Granderson has taken full advantage of being the lead pass rusher with another dominant performance.

After posting 8+ sacks in each...

The New Orleans Saints fell to the San Francisco 49ers 26-21 on Sunday in Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season, dropping to 0-2 on the year.

The breakout player from the Saints’ loss to the 49ers took advantage of his opportunity: DE Chris Rumph II.

The 26-year-old edge rusher signed a one-year deal with New Orleans earlier this offseason, reuniting with former Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley, now the Saints’ defensive coordinator.

On Sunday, Rumph earned a team-high 80.2 overall grade from Pro Football Focus, finishing with two stops, one tackle and a strip sack while posting...

The Good: Spencer Rattler

The New Orleans Saints sophomore quarterback played his best game as a pro on Sunday, completing 25 of 34 passes for 207 yards and 3 touchdowns with no interceptions. Rattler led three touchdown drives including two of 70+ yards and got the Saints from their own 6 all the way to midfield before a potential game winning drive was stopped. This was Rattler’s first multi-touchdown game of his career, and hopefully this performance will increase Rattler’s confidence going forward, because he played very well this week. Another shoutout should be given to Carl Granderson, who...

Postgame Quotes: San Francisco 49ers, New Orleans Saints | 2025 NFL Week 2

Some noteworthy Quotes from after the loss to the 49ers.

Throughout the 2025 NFL season, SB Nation’s Doug Farrar will write about the game’s Secret Superstars — those players whose performances might slip under the radar for whatever reasons. In this installment, it’s time to get into the potential that Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler has shown in his brief NFL career, how his teammates and coaches are responding, and what it all means for Rattler’s future — especially when the wins start coming.

I’ve always believed that the quarterback win is the dumbest statistic in football, and it’s right up there in any sport. The alleged metric does nothing to...
