New Orleans Saints Postseason Outlook and Predictions
With Kellen Moore stepping in as head coach, the Saints aimed for a major offensive turnaround. After Derek Carr’s retirement, Spencer Rattler and rookie Tyler Shough were left to lead the offense, with Rattler as the starter. To jumpstart the offense, New Orleans added tight end Jack Stoll, wide receiver Brandin Cooks, and bolstered the offensive line by drafting Kelvin Banks Jr. in the first round.
On defense, the Saints added impactful players like defensive end Chase Young, safety Justin Reid, and defensive end Jonathan Bullard. New Orleans also drafted cornerback Quincy Riley and defensive tackle Vernon Broughton to add depth. Veterans such as Cameron Jordan and Demario Davis will be crucial in leading the unit.
Both the offense and defense fell short this season, leaving the Saints in another rebuild.
