The New Orleans Saints are continuing to re-build their defense to compliment their championship caliber offense to make the team into one of the NFC favorites for the Super Bowl. High draft choices have teamed up with mid or late round selections and a few smart free agent acquisitions to improve the Saints defense from a bottom ranked unit into an up and coming squad capable of shutting down most offenses they face. Today, we take a look at a few important offseason additions on the defensive side that are hoping to help transform the New Orleans defense into an elite NFL unit.

Demario Davis, LB

Davis was arguably the biggest free agent acquisitions of the 2018 offseason for New Orleans. The 29-yr. old veteran comes over from the New York Jets as one of the league's most underrated linebackers. He has explosive sideline to sideline athleticism, is a strong run defender, an effective blitzer, and has solid pass coverage ability. He is able to play any linebacking spot in either a 4-3 or 3-4 alignment, as well as sub packages. ...

Alvin Kamara receives a new title for the rest of the season

This may surprise some, but Alvin Kamara wasn’t one of the New Orleans Saints’ team captains to start the 2024 season. He’s undoubtedly one of the Saints’ biggest leaders. He just didn’t have the title of captain until Saturday. He will now be named a captain for the remainder of the season.

Kamara has been a captain in the past, but he didn’t possess that title this season. It’s rare you ever see captains change in the middle of a season, but moving on from Dennis Allen gives the team a bit of a reset.

Darren Rizzi hasn’t been the interim head coach for even a week, but he’s already...

This was the development we expected, but that doesn’t make it any less tough to reckon with. The New Orleans Saints are expected to place wide receiver Chris Olave on injured reserve Saturday, per multiple reports — NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill first reported the news, which was confirmed by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

It’s a tough blow to a Saints receiving corps that’s already undermanned with the loss of Rashid Shaheed to season-ending knee surgery. There’s a possibility Olave’s year could be finished, too. He’s suffered two concussions this season and four in his NFL career...
