New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore said that both tight ends Taysom Hill (knee) and Foster Moreau (knee) will not take part in the team's offseason program due to knee injuries. Both players will miss OTAs and mandatory minicamp. Hill tore his left ACL in December of last year and probably won't be ready for training camp in late July, either. If the 34-year-old Swiss Army Knife looking unlikely to miss the start of the regular season, too, it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility that he'll be a salary cap casualty with a cap hit of almost $18 million in 2025. Moreau suffered a knee injury in early January and is still rehabbing. When healthy, the 28-year-old should compete with Juwan Johnson for the top pass-catching role at tight end in 2025. Hill is the most fantasy friendly TE in New Orleans if he stays, but he could be even more boom-or-bust if he stays in the Big Easy coming off his serious knee injury.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough, who is firmly in the battle for the QB1 job, had an "encouraging performance" during Thursday's OTA practice. "Shough showed it today," Saints reporter Nick Underhill wrote. "Hit two bombs for TDs, real nice layered throw going to the sideline and had an incomplete pass on the move that barely missed but athleticism flashed." The 25-year-old is likely the favorite to be the Week 1 starter in Kellen Moore's new offense after the sudden retirement of Derek Carr (shoulder), so the positive report is promising. Shough was a second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft after tossing for 7,820 yards, 59 touchdowns, and 23 interceptions in 42 collegiate games with Oregon, Texas Tech, and Louisville. He also scored 11 career rushing touchdowns. Shough is no stranger to learning a new system on the fly, so he could exceed relatively low expectations in Year 1.
