SEATTLE -- Cameron Jordan was robbed of a touchdown last Sunday, thanks to an error by the officials. But the New Orleans Saints defensive end didn't come away completely empty-handed.

Jordan, who dropped a "Foot Locker" reference while criticizing the officiating crew after the game, revealed on Twitter that the sportswear company sent him a gift box with new shoes and a note that read: "Cam, we've got your back ... and your feet. -- Your friends at Foot Locker."...

SEATTLE — Whether New Orleans Saints fans are ready or not, the first game since 2015 with quarterback Drew Brees as an injury scratch is here.

And it's against a 2-0 Seattle Seahawks team that went to the playoffs last season.

Though, the Saints haven't played the Seahawks since 2016. Additionally, the two teams have only faced off 13 times in the regular season, and only four of those matchups have been during the Sean Payton era.

A win here would move the...

The Saints continue their West Coast swing, but this have many questions to answer with Drew Brees on the mend after thumb surgery.

It's unclear exactly how coach Sean Payton intends to platoon backup quarterbacks Teddy Bridgewater and Taysom Hill in Brees' absence, but they'll likely both be featured in the game significantly. New Orleans lost 27-9 to the Los Angeles Rams last, struggling to mount much offense after Brees went out of the game.

It’s a pretty common occurrence for fans and analysts to make bold predictions about a game or season. If the prediction doesn’t come true, then that’s OK - you said it was bold! If it DOES come true, though... now you look like a genius!

So in that spirit, some of the Canal Street Chronicles writers were asked to share with me a bold prediction or two for the Week 3 of the regular season for the New Orleans Saints: another West Coast game, this time against Russell...

SEATTLE — For Teddy Bridgewater, the noise at CenturyLink Field on Sunday may be just as loud as the noise over 2,500 miles away back home in New Orleans.

If Bridgewater can silence the Seattle Seahawks fans today, he'll also be able to silence some of the Saints fans too.

This is Bridgewater's opportunity to show he's worthy of being the NFL's highest paid backup. This is his chance to show he is worth the $7.2 million the Saints shelled out for him to re-sign for...

MOSCOW, Idaho — Unsuspecting passersby could easily assume the large metal cylinder nestled among the rolling hills of the Palouse is an airplane hangar.

Or, to quote former Bowling Green football coach Dave Clawson: "It's a Campbell's soup can, cut in half."

It may look like a home for crop dusters, but Idaho’s Kibbie Dome is a stadium unique unto itself. Few college domes remain in use, but this one’s roof is made of wooden arches still visible from the inside —...

The Saints made a “splash” in free agency when they signed tight end Jared Cook this offseason. The team has lacked a true difference maker at the position since Jimmy Graham was traded to Seattle, and needed a receiving threat other than Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara.

Cook had a career year last season playing in John Gruden’s west coast offense in Oakland, and was supposed to make a seamless transition into the one Sean Payton runs here. But so far, the results...

The last time Antonio Brown became a free agent, he wasn’t free for long. This time around, he may be waiting for a while.

Add the Saints to the list of teams that don’t seem to be interested in signing AB.

“I think right now, where we sit, I like our depth at that position,” Saints coach Sean Payton told reporters on Friday, when asked about Brown. “I haven’t really paid much attention to the other teams and hadn’t heard that yet. But, it is what it is. I am...

SEATTLE — Sean Payton feared he was going to lose Teddy Bridgewater.

Bridgewater was an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and the Miami Dolphins offered him a two-year, $10 million offer.

Payton was vacationing in the Bahamas at the same time as Bridgewater's agent, and the two had a 4-hour conversation.

"We wanted to keep him here," Payton said. "It was important."

Bridgewater, a Miami native, turned down the Dolphins' hometown bid, and signed a 1-year...

SEATTLE - Sheldon Rankins admits it's been tough standing on the sideline the past two weeks.

He was listed as "OUT" on Friday's injury report, meaning he'll be standing on the sideline againg on Sunday when the Saints play the Seattle Seahawks at CenturyLink Field.

The defensive tackle isn't giving hints on when he'll return, but did offer a bit of optimism on Friday that perhaps it's is sooner than later.

The Seahawks showed interest in Antonio Brown before the receiver signed with the Patriots. Brown is a free agent again, 13 days later.

So do the Seahawks, who spoke with Brown after the Raiders cut him, have interest in the Pro Bowler this time around?

Coach Pete Carroll said no without using the word.

“We’re pretty well set right now,” Carroll said Friday, via Gregg Bell of the News Tribune. “We kind of know where we’re going with that.”

Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny injured his hamstring in Friday’s practice. That prompted the team to add him to their status report as questionable for Sunday against the Saints.

C.J. Prosise likely would see more work if Penny can’t go.

The team also made cornerback Tre Flowers a late addition, listing him as questionable after he injured his ankle at Thursday’s practice. Jamar Taylor or Akeem King would start for Flowers.

The Seahawks also list free safety...
