Devaughn Vele Leads Saints in Receiving Yards in Week 13
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele had a breakout game in his team's Week 13 loss to the Miami Dolphins, recording eight catches for 93 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. Vele was acquired by New Orleans from the Denver Broncos before the start of the 2025 season. He spent most of the early portion of the year buried on the team's depth chart, recording just five targets over his first six games. However, New Orleans traded away wideout Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline and released veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks in late November. In recent weeks, Vele appears to be ascending into his team's WR2 role alongside Chris Olave. He's now recorded 23 targets over his last five games, including consecutive weeks with at least seven targets. Given his emergent role in New Orleans, Vele could be worth a look on the waiver wire in deeper fantasy leagues heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
