The New Orleans Saints started OTAs this week with a new look. Gone are Demario Davis, Taysom Hill and Cam Jordan (at least for now). In is the leadership of Tyler Shough, who in addition to his on-field responsibilities is shouldering the load as a locker room leader and face of the franchise. Can he do it? Our Saints Insiders discuss. Also covered on this episode:  • Time to worry about rookies not practicing?  • The tight end revolution is coming to New Orleans  • Jonas Sanker moves into the spotlight  #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nfloffseason #nflquarterbacks #tylershough

The New Orleans Saints veterans are back on the practice field for the first time for the 2026 season. We won't be able to draw concrete conclusions from OTAs, but they do offer a few clues for training camp and the season to come. On this episode, the Saints Insiders discuss: • Tyler Shough taking control  • Travis Etienne's vibes  • Jordyn Tyson, Christen Miller and injury management  • Position battles  • Wide receiver rotation  #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nfloffseason

With the New Orleans Saints a week away from their first OTA, our Saints Insiders take a moment to play Buy or Sell? with some predictions for the 2026 team. Are we buying or selling: • Tyler Shough sophomore jump • Offensive line as a top 15 unit • All 11 defensive starters currently on roster • Chris Olave getting an extension before training camp • Enough leadership without Cam Jordan and Demario Davis #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nfloffseason #tylershough #nflquarterbacks #football

The 2026 NFL schedule is out, and so the New Orleans Saints have their marching orders for an anticipated season to come. Our Saints Insiders give their take on the slate and offer a game-by-game prediction for all 17 contests. How many of us have the Saints making the playoffs? What upsets are we calling for? And which games does New Orleans absolutely NEED to win? #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflschedule #nflschedulerelease #nflpicks

This episode of the Saints Insider podcast delves into the NFL schedule release coming Thursday. First, we have reaction to the official announcement the New Orleans Saints will play the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 25 in Paris. Then, we talk about rumors we've heard and expectations for how many prime-time games the Saints will have and whom they may play their season opener against. We offer some opinions on what the Saints should hope for (and hope against) in their schedule and finally talk about the most difficult opponents on the 2026 slate. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflschedulerelease #nflschedule #nflinternational #steelers #pittsburghsteelers

Some drama erupted on the Saints podcast scene when former safety Tyrann Mathieu, a New Orleans native who retired last year, said the Saints weren't operating "in good faith" when it comes to running back Alvin Kamara, who is under contract for 2026 but hasn't been publicly backed by Saints leaders after the team signed Travis Etienne. The Saints Insiders discuss whether Mathieu is right, what the Saints should do about it — publicly or otherwise — and predict ultimately what happens with Kamara and the only NFL team he's ever known. We also offer a quick preview of rookie minicamp, which starts this weekend. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nfloffseason #alvinkamara #tyrannmathieu #nflfreeagency #nfltrades

The New Orleans Saints had a busy week, drafting eight players, trading for another and then signing two in free agency. Our Saints Insiders are back to recap the 2026 NFL Draft and talk about the new additions and how they fit the roster. The list starts with first-round pick Jordyn Tyson, but what about the Day 2 surprises and the big Day 3 trade? We talk Christen Miller, Oscar Delp, Tyree Wilson, Barion Brown, Lorenzo Styles and more.  #saints #neworlanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nfldraft #nfldraft2026 #nfloffseason #draftgrades

The Saints Insiders gather one last time before the NFL draft starts Thursday. What will the New Orleans Saints do at No. 8? Who are our favorite prospects who could be available then? And did general manager Mickey Loomis leave any bread crumbs during his Wednesday press conference? We'll answer those questions and more. Happy NFL draft eve! #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nfldraft #nfldraft2026 #mockdraft

In our latest NFL mock draft, we turn to Times-Picayune columnist Jeff Duncan to project what the New Orleans Saints will do next week. The answer? Examine a prospect who might be the top wide receiver in the draft but also is a big injury risk in Arizona State's Jordyn Tyson. Would Jeff take Tyson over a safer choice like Rueben Bain or LSU's Mansoor Delane? Would you? Our panel takes aim at Jeff's mock, both in the first round and with a look at all of the Saints' selections in later rounds.
