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.

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.

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.

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.

Jake Haener Relieves Injured Carr

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener entered the game late in the fourth quarter after starter Derek Carr (hand, head) was forced out due to injury. Carr took the ball in a designed run and vaulted over defenders near the sideline but came down hard on his left arm and head. Coming in with four […]

New Orleans D/ST A Good Choice Against Giants

The New Orleans Saints D/ST looks like a solid streaming candidate in Week 14 despite their recent struggles to produce fantasy value. In the games bookending their Week 12 bye, the Saints allowed 14 and 21 points and a combined five sacks. They also failed to record a turnover after starting the year with at […]

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe hit a pair of 54-yard field goals in Week 13 but also missed a 36-yarder in the 21-14 loss to the Rams. The miss was his first since Week 8 and just his second missed field goal of the year. He is now 5-for-5 on attempts from 50 yards […]

Foster Moreau Good To Go For Week 14

New Orleans Saints tight end Foster Moreau (shoulder) practiced in full on Friday after logging limited sessions on the two preceding days.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Seeking Fifth TD

When wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling scored his touchdown in Week 13, he joined Donte Stallworth as the only players in Saints history with four receiving touchdowns in their first four games with the franchise. Valdes-Scantling will look for a fifth come Sunday when New Orleans takes on the New York Giants. With Chris Olave (concussion) […]

Alvin Kamara Gets Juicy Matchup In Week 14

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is set up for a big game in Week 14 against the New York Giants. The Giants allow the second-highest yards per carry (5.04) and the fifth-most PPR points per game to opposing running backs. Kamara ranks third in touches per game (22.1), and he will see plenty […]

Derek Carr Operable As A QB2

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr has two top-15 performances since returning from injury in Week 9. His sudden resurgence is surprising as he has been missing receivers Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee), among others. Down his best pass-catchers, Carr has spread the ball out more and developed a rapport with Marquez Valdes-Scantling, […]

Juwan Johnson Logs Five Catches In Loss

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson tied teammate Taysom Hill (knee) to lead the team in receptions and targets in Sunday's loss to the Rams.

Derek Carr Throws TD Pass In Loss

Despite recording his most passing attempts and second-highest completion total of the season, New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr finished with a mediocre line in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams. Carr went 24-for-37 for 184 yards (his third-lowest total of 2024) with one touchdown. The touchdown went to Marquez Valdes-Scantling, their fourth connection for […]

New Orleans D/ST Should Be Avoided Against Rams

The New Orleans Saints D/ST recorded three sacks and held the Browns to 14 points in Week 11 but failed to force a turnover for just the second time this season. The mediocre result does not inspire confidence as the team comes out of their bye to face the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. The […]

Blake Grupe A Good Streamer Against Rams

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe did not register a field goal attempt in Week 11's 35-14 win over the Cleveland Browns but he did convert all five of his extra point tries.
