Who Should I Start? A.T. Perry or Brenden Rice

Denver Broncos wide receiver A.T. Perry (undisclosed) has made "quite a bit" of progress since being activated from the PUP list, head coach Sean Payton told members of the media, including Luca Evans of the Denver Post. Perry didn't make the Broncos' initial 53-man roster, but he was brought back onto the practice squad. Plus, from the sounds of it, he has earned the praise of Denver's coaching staff ever since getting healthy. It's fair to assume that Perry, who hasn't played in a game since his rookie campaign with the Saints in 2023, could be a candidate to join the 53-man roster if a current Bronco receiver underperforms or gets injured.

Free agent wide receiver Brenden Rice is working out for the New Orleans Saints on Monday, according to Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports. Rice is the son of Hall of Fame wideout Jerry Rice. A seventh-round pick of the Los Angeles Chargers in 2024, Rice appeared in three games without recording a catch as a rookie and was released by Los Angeles earlier this week. The 23-year-old worked out for the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday, so there are at least a couple of teams with speculative interest. The Saints have a solid top-four in their wide receiver room between Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, Brandin Cooks, and Devaughn Vele. If Rice signs in New Orleans, it would likely be a practice squad deal.
