Jake Haener Injury History & Analysis

Saints rookie QB Spencer Rattler managed just 15-of-30 passing for 153 yards (5.1 per attempt), 0 TDs, and 1 INT in Monday night's shutout loss to the Packers. He also took 3 sacks and lost a fumble.

Saints QB Derek Carr (hand) is "very likely" to miss the rest of the season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Carr underwent further examination recently and he’s at least a few weeks away from being able to withstand contact," Rapoport adds. Carr can be dropped in all redraft leagues. We're projecting the Saints to go back to QB Spencer Rattler for Monday night's game against the Packers. But, whether it's Rattler or Jake Haener, you should stay away from Saints QBs in fantasy lineups.

The Saints yanked QB Jake Haener at halftime for Spencer Rattler and nearly came back to beat the Commanders. Rattler went just 10-of-21 passing for 135 yards and a TD but didn't turn the ball over and took no sacks. Haener threw for just 49 yards on 4-of-10 passing with an INT and 3 sacks taken before he left.

Saints interim HC Darren Rizzi informed the team today that QB Jake Haener will start this weekend's game vs. the Commanders, according to insider Nick Underhill. It'll be Haener's first career start. The 2023 fourth-round pick has completed just 49% of his 29 passes in mop-up duty across four different games this season. Try to avoid Haener and the entire Saints passing game in fantasy lineups this week. New Orleans is implied for only 18 points.
