Bryan Bresee - Gets another sack Sunday Bresee recorded 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 21-14 loss versus the Rams.
Impact Bresee was able to put a notch in the sack column for the second game in a row in Week 13, getting to Matthew Stafford on a third down to force a Rams punt late in the third quarter. He enters Week 14 with the second most sacks in the league by a defensive tackle (6.5) behind only two-time Pro-Bowler Dexter Lawrence (9.0).

Will Harris - Decent showing in loss Harris recorded six tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 21-14 loss versus the Rams.
Impact Harris was on the field for all 55 of New Orleans' defensive snaps in Week 13, and he gathered six-plus tackles for his third time this season. Overall though, he hasn't generated enough tackle production to warrant IDP consideration for the fantasy playoffs in most formats.

Pete Werner - Solid day in loss Werner recorded eight tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 21-14 loss versus the Rams.
Impact Werner tallied eight-plus tackles for the third time in his last five games in Week 13. He's been his usual self this season, dutifully filling gaps in the run game and pitching in sparingly in other facets. He'll be on the IDP radar as a high-floor option when the Saints travel to take on the Giants in Week 14.

Ugo Amadi - Leading tackler Week 13 Amadi recorded nine tackles (eight solo) and one pass defended during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams.
Impact Amadi tallied at least eight tackles for the third game in a row, finishing with the Saints' team-high in this category. The 5-foot-9 defensive back has taken on an increased role since Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) was traded to Washington on Nov. 5. Amadi has also played at least 90 percent of offensive snaps in each game since taking over as New Orleans' top nickelback. He should remain productive so long as he remains in this role moving forward.

Jamaal Williams - Grabs one pass in return Williams had zero carries and hauled in his only target for seven yards during Sunday's 21-14 defeat to the Rams.
Impact Williams reprised his role as the Saints' RB2 after missing the previous three games with a groin issue. But, that still didn't mean he would factor into their gameplan, as Alvin Kamara once again carried the load out of the backfield while playing 86 percent of offensive snaps. Do-it-all tight end Taysom Hill also featured into his usual role in the rushing game before suffering a season-ending torn ACL in the fourth quarter. With no other player capable of filling Hill's unique role in the offense, New Orleans will likely have to make up for his absence by lean on its other tight ends and rushers. This could lead to more opportunities as a short-yardage power back for the 224-pound Williams. It will be worth monitoring how he is deployed behind Kamara during this coming Sunday's road game against the Giants.

Blake Grupe - Hits two 54-yard field goals Grupe went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams.
Impact Grupe was unsuccessful on a 36-yard field-goal attempt on the first play of the second quarter, but that was sandwiched between two successful 54-yard field-goal tries, the second of which took place on the final play of the first half. Grupe is a perfect 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts from 50-plus yards, and on the year he's converted 20 of 22 field-goal tries and 26 of 28 extra-point attempts through 12 regular-season games.

Dante Pettis - Moves back to practice squad Pettis reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Pettis has received some run in New Orleans' offense the last three games due to the banged-up nature of the receiving corps, recording exactly one catch on each occasion. Overall, his 3-22-0 line on four targets during that span isn't much to write home about, and his snap share (20 percent) was behind all of Marquez Valdes-Scantling (76), Kevin Austin (61) and Cedrick Wilson (33). Because the Saints have used the maximum allotment of three elevations on Pettis, he'll need to be signed to the active roster in order to suit up Sunday at the Giants.
1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Austin Jr. - Goes back to practice squad Austin reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Due to injury woes in New Orleans' receiving corps, Austin has been a regular in the offense the past three games, including Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams, when he hauled in all three targets for 31 yards and recorded a nine-yard carry. He also ranked second in snaps (43 of 70) among the team's healthy wide receivers behind Marquez Valdes-Scantling (53, 2-36-1 line on three targets). Considering the Saints have used the maximum three elevations on Austin, he'll need to be signed to the active roster in order to play this coming Sunday at the Giants.

Taysom Hill - Suffers season-ending ACL tear Hill was diagnosed with a season-ending ACL tear as well as additional damage to his left knee after undergoing further testing following Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams, Ian Rapop...
Impact The setback is a devastating one for Hill, who was just two weeks removed from delivering one of the fantasy performances of the season, when he accounted for three touchdowns, eight receptions, 188 yards from scrimmage and 18 passing yards in a Nov. 17 win over the Browns. Though he had been filling a variety of functions in the New Orleans offense in addition to contributing on special teams, Hill had tight-end eligibility in most fantasy leagues, where his involvement as a rusher in recent weeks had made him a high-ceiling lineup option. Now set to turn 35 years old in August and coming off a major injury that could affect his readiness for the 2025 season, Hill is facing a murky outlook moving forward. He's still on the Saints' books through next season after signing a four-year, $40 million extension in November 2021, though the 2025 portion of his deal contains no guarantees and could put him at risk of being cut.

Taysom Hill - Tests confirm season-ending injury Hill is on track to miss the remainder of the season after tests Monday confirmed that he sustained a significant left knee injury in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams, Adam Schefter...
Impact Though a precise diagnosis of the injury likely won't be provided until interim head coach Darren Rizzi addresses the media, Hill's knee issue is apparent severe enough to sideline him for the final five games of the regular season and any potential playoff run that might follow. The 34-year-old Hill suffered four season-ending injuries during his collegiate career, but he's mostly been able to avoid extended absences since entering the professional ranks as an undrafted free agent in 2017. Hill had proven to be a versatile weapon for the Saints this season, contributing on special teams while also handling a variety of assignments on offense. He'll conclude the 2024 campaign with 278 rushing yards, 187 receiving yards on 23 catches and two completions for 21 passing yards while scoring six touchdowns over his eight appearances.

Taysom Hill - Season-ending injury feared Hill is feared to have suffered a season-ending knee injury during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Hill was carted off in the second half of Sunday's loss to the Rams. He will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury, but the team is pessimistic regarding what tests on Hill's knee will reveal. Another update on Hill's status will surface after results of the MRI become known.

Foster Moreau - Could be in store for more work Moreau (shoulder) finished with two receptions (four targets) for six yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams.
Impact Moreau's stat line was nothing to write home about, but there are positive takeaways for the tight end Sunday. First off, New Orleans' recent bye week allowed the veteran backup to heal up from a shoulder injury sustained in the Saints' prior contest back in Week 11. Moreau's role may increase in the interim after versatile starter Taysom Hill (knee) was carted off late in the fourth quarter of the loss to Los Angeles. Juwan Johnson (5-36-0) could also benefit from any time Hill may be forced to miss, but both could become waiver adds in deeper formats in that scenario.
1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE
Juwan Johnson - Grabs five receptions Sunday Johnson caught five of seven targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams.
Impact Johnson actually finished just one yard shy of Saints' leading receiver Taysom Hill (knee) in a contest that did not feature a ton of big passing plays. The backup tight end could be in store for extra work if the knee injury that Hill suffered late in Sunday's loss costs the starter time, but Foster Moreau remains in the mix as well. Either way, Johnson's ceiling is capped in games in which he doesn't hit pay dirt this season, keeping him out of the conversation in standard leagues ahead of next Sunday's tilt against the Giants.
