Which Newcomer to the Saints Offense Will Have the Biggest Impact in 2018?
Will these offseason additions make the Saints offense elite once again?
By Bob Rose
The New Orleans Saints have had one of the NFL's best offenses since Sean Payton took the reigns as head coach in 2006. One of the things that made the New Orleans passing offense so dangerous was the depth of their talent.
Quarterback Drew Brees often liked to spread the ball around to as many as five or six different receiving threats, all of whom had the capability to be a factor in the outcome of a game. The 2017 season was a bit of a different story. Second year wide receiver Michael Thomas established himself as one of the top receivers in the league, making his first of probably many Pro Bowl berths with a team-record 104 catch season for 1,245 yards and 5 touchdowns. Rookie running back Alvin Kamara added 81 catches for 826 yards on his way to offensive rookie of the year and his first Pro Bowl berth. Ted Ginn Jr. provided an expected big play threat, even in his 11th season, and was also a better all-around wideout than at any point in his career. The Saints got very little production consistently from their other pass catchers last year, however, prompting Payton to highlight this area as one of the team's biggest offseason focuses. Today we take a look at three players that New Orleans brought in to give additional targets for quarterback Drew Brees.

This is good to see. Juwan Johnson was spotted at New Orleans Saints training camp on Friday, out of a walking boot and catching passes from a JUGS machine. The team’s starting tight end underwent foot surgery in mid-June after developing a stress fracture throughout minicamp. So this was a big development for him, even if he’s still on the PUP list.
Johnson worked with a member of the training staff before and after team drills got started. He was wearing a helmet for probably the first time in more than a month and, for now, was just looking to knock off the rust. He had been wearing a...

Alontae Taylor wore a microphone at Friday’s New Orleans Saints training camp practice, and he made sure not to disappoint those listening in. The third-year cornerback has embraced his role defending the slot in Dennis Allen’s defense, and he took time to check in on his less-experienced teammates like rookie corner Kool-Aid McKinstry and recently-signed backup Mac McCain.
It’s clear Taylor brings a lot of energy to each practice session. He’s a fast talker and shared his take on everything from the DJ’s music choices (“We need to be listening to, like, some Alicia Keys. Anthony...

Saints CB Marshon Lattimore leaves practice early with hip injury
New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore left Friday’s training camp practice early and did not return. Head coach Dennis Allen revealed after practice that Lattimore was dealing with a hip flexor injury.
Rookie cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry replaced Lattimore on the outside for the majority of practice with third-year corner Alontae Taylor remaining in the slot. McKinstry also took some snaps in the slot.
While Allen did not go into details about the severity of Lattimore’s injury, the 4x Pro Bowler is likely to miss some time, which could be a week or more, depending on the...

Saints QB Jake Haener diagnosed with a rare form of skin cancer
New Orleans Saints second-year QB Jake Haener was seen wearing a bandage on his face during the first couple days of training camp, and now we are aware of the reason.
Haener said that right before the start of training camp he was diagnosed with a rare form of skin cancer. He declined to say what type of skin cancer it was but did disclose that it is not considered to be life-threatening.
“For my age, it’s kind of rare that that it pops up like that. So, I’m trying to get that evaluated with our training staff. I have a consultation with doctors August 1st on our off day.”

Jake Haener dealing with a rare form of skin cancer
New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener was seen wearing a bandage on the right side of his face at Friday’s media availability after training camp practice, which he disclosed was due to treatment for a form of skin cancer.
Haener said it was rare skin cancer for his age group which developed as a “bump” on his cheek just before training camp began. He ultimately had it removed and biopsied. He will learn more from doctors on Aug. 1 and will form a treatment plan from then on out.
It is considered to be non-life threatening, which is a relief, and up to now has not prevented Haener...

The New Orleans Saints have been shuffling the offensive line around for most of training camp, with left guard and right tackle primarily being the positions where battles are taking place. At Friday’s practice, according to NewOrleans.Football’s Mike Triplett, “Lucas Patrick spent much of the day as the starting LG, with Nick Saldiveri with the 2s. A competition there.”
Left guard has been a battle between Patrick, Saldiveri, and Shane Lemieux, the latter of whom suffered an ankle injury recently and was held out of Friday’s practice. Right tackle is also seeing some competition, with...

Saints QB Jake Haener diagnosed with rare form of skin cancer
IRVINE, Calif. — New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener says that he has been diagnosed with a rare form of skin cancer.
It’s not considered life-threatening, but it has kept Haener from practicing. He is working with doctors on a treatment plan.
Haener was a fourth-round draft pick out of Fresno State in the 2023 NFL draft. Last year, he made the regular-season roster after playing in all three of New Orleans' preseason games. He did not appear in a regular-season game as a rookie. The 25-year-old was suspended for the first six games of the regular season for violating the NFL's...

Marshon Lattimore leaves with an injury at Day 3 of Saints training camp
Soft-tissue injuries are common early at training camp, but it’s still tough to see a key player sidelined like this. Marshon Lattimore left the third day of New Orleans Saints practices at UC Irvine with an injury. Afterwards head coach Dennis Allen said it was a hip flexor, which is something Lattimore has dealt with before. He suffered a hip flexor injury at the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine but it didn’t limit him much once the Saints drafted him.
This is why they drafted Kool-Aid McKinstry despite having both Paulson Adebo and Alontae Taylor on the roster along with Lattimore. No team...
