Saints Add WR Help(?) in Brandin Cooks

The Saints have agreed to a deal with WR Brandin Cooks, according to NFL Network. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it's a two-year deal worth $13 million. That's a surprising amount for the current version of Cooks. DeAndre Hopkins and Mike Williams, for example, each signed one-year deals worth about $6 million with their new teams this offseason.

Saints to Hire Kellen Moore as HC

According to multiple reports, the Saints are now set to officially hire Kellen Moore as their next HC. The move has been expected since before the Super Bowl. At 36, Moore will become the league's youngest HC, edging Seattle's Mike Macdonald (37 until late June). Moore, of course, spent 2024 as Eagles OC after one season as Chargers OC and four as Cowboys OC.

Chris Olave Questionable For Week 18

Saints WR Chris Olave (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He was a full-go in practice for the third straight week. We’ll see if Olave suits up for the finale, but he’d be a shaky fantasy play with his snaps potentially limited in this Spencer Rattler-led offense.

Chris Olave Out For Week 17

Saints WR Chris Olave (concussion) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. He was a full participant in practice all week, so we'll see if he makes it back for the regular-season finale vs. the Bucs next weekend.
