Some move from New Orleans before their first practice of the week.
It would be an excellent selection.
Tough potential departures in the offseason.

The New Orleans Saints have wrapped up their first practice ahead of their NFC South matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Saints listed only four players on Wednesday’s injury report, all of whom were absent. Running back Alvin Kamara remained absent as he deals with a knee injury. At the same time, safety Justin Reid was added after suffering an injury early in the team’s last matchup with the Miami Dolphins. Wide receiver Chris Olave was absent after reaggravating his back injury in the team’s loss on Sunday.
The Buccaneers had nine players on Wednesday’s injury report, including many...

Yesterday, the New Orleans Saints waived WR Kevin Austin Jr. and OT Barry Wesley, which opened up two more spots on the active roster. With many options on the current practice squad, the Saints could have gone in a bunch of different directions. In the end, WR Dante Pettis and G William Sherman were signed to the active roster.
Since the departure of WR Rashid Shaheed, Pettis has become one of the primary kick returners and the punter returner for the Saints. He has not had much success, and WR Mason Tipton actually looks like the better kick returner, but...

The New Orleans Saints are paying a visit to division rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday afternoon, and here’s a quick look at what either outcome could mean.
A victory on Sunday would avenge the Bucs’ win over the Saints back in October, and would likely require another strong performance from Tyler Shough, which would move the rookie quarterback to 2-3 as a starter.
New Orleans played well enough in the second half to beat Miami last time out. They’ll need a full game at their best to beat an NFC South rival looking to...

This week, the New Orleans Saints will head to Raymond James Stadium to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 14 of the 2025 NFL season. The player to watch for this matchup has come up big the past couple of weeks and should see even more opportunity with Justin Reid expected to miss time with a knee injury: S Terrell Burgess.
After participating in a tryout during rookie minicamp, the Saints signed the 27-year-old to a one-year contract, reuniting him with his former Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator, now New Orleans DC Brandon Staley.
The move has already paid...

Saints find their QB of the future.
That was quick.
After retiring abruptly, could a return be in the works?

New Orleans Saints will head into a Week 14 road matchup in Florida again for their 2nd game of the season against their current NFC South leaders, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While the Saints did lose to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, several positives came out the game as the team put up a lot of fight in what was Charlie Smyth’s debut and WR Devaughn Vele’s breakout game. While their record may say 2-10, many are saying the Saints are a better team than that and have a lot to build upon moving forward.
But as always, we want...

The New Orleans Saints’ valiant comeback effort fell short, and dropped to a 2-10 overall record following a 21-17 road loss to the Miami Dolphins, officially eliminating the team from playoff contention. With just five games remaining in the 2025 NFL regular season, New Orleans will head back to Florida for their second meeting of the year against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Here is how social media reacted to the Week 13 defeat.

The New Orleans Saints finally got the breakout game from receiver Devaughn Vele that we had been anticipating since they traded for him earlier in the year. Vele caught 8 passes for 93 yards and a touchdown and even recovered an onside kick on a good kick by Charlie Smyth in his NFL debut. We have been waiting for the Saints to get Vele more involved and now they finally have. As he continues to gain a familiarity with Tyler Shough, Vele should become the much needed second threat in the passing game behind Chris...

The New Orleans Saints fell short in their comeback attempt on Sunday, as they were beaten 21-17 by the Miami Dolphins in Week 13 of the 2025 NFL season at Hard Rock Stadium. Here’s the biggest overreaction from this weekend’s matchup:
Charlie Smyth doesn’t look back and remains Saints starting kicker of the future.
The wait is over for the International Player Pathway product, as he finally made his professional debut following the release of former team captain Blake Grupe—and he didn’t disappoint.
After nailing a 66-yard field goal in warmups, Smyth faced a tough task for his first NFL...

The New Orleans Saints were back in action when they faced the Miami Dolphins in Week 13. Here’s a quick look back at Sunday’s action from South Florida.
Despite Cam Jordan sacking Tua Tagovailoa early on in the drive, Miami made quick work of the Saints defense on the opening possession. A 13-yard pass to Darren Waller preceded a 29-yard touchdown run from De’Von Achane to give the hosts a 7-0 lead.
The teams then proceeded to take turns going three-and-out for five consecutive possessions, before Miami finally got a drive moving with a 16-yard pass from...
