We’re on to Day 67 of our countdown to the start of the New Orleans Saints’ 2024 regular season, which makes the current owner of the No. 67 jersey our Saints Player of the Day. So what are realistic goals for Landon Young in 2024? What’s the vision for him to make the team and help out this year? And what’s brought him to this point? Let’s answer each of those questions.

Young played left tackle almost exclusively in college, but he’s cross-trained on the right side during his time with the Saints, and there’s been some speculation that he could join the left guard competition this summer. He’s only started seven games through three years and has dealt with a couple of injuries, so that’s a factor in evaluating him, too.

While he’s logged more snaps at right tackle (257) with the Saints than at left tackle (155), Young was primarily working as Taliese Fuaga’s backup on the left side at minicamp and OTAs this spring. He does have that versatility to plug into either spot, though, so he shouldn’t be seen as limited to one side or the other.
