March 14: Should the Saints sign Cooper Kupp?

Saints Insider ·

2025/03/14

The New Orleans Saints are being mentioned as a possibility for Cooper Kupp, the big-name wide receiver who hit the market yesterday as a free agent. The former All-Pro would instantly increase the ceiling of the Saints' receiving corp, but he'd also be expensive — at least against the backdrop of the Saints' salary cap concerns — and is aging and injury prone. Our Saints Insiders — beat writers Luke Johnson and Matthew Paras and columnist Jeff Duncan — discuss the chances of Kupp landing in New

2025/03/06

The NFL's new league year starts Wednesday, and so the New Orleans Saints must get their salary under the $279.2 million cap. That will include contract restructures for quarterback Derek Carr and other veterans, and the result will decide how active the Saints can be in free agency and thus the direction of the franchise under new coach Kellen Moore. Our Saints Insider crew discusses that direction, plus their takeaways from the NFL Combine and what the Saints might be looking for in the NFL draft

Feb. 19: The Saints' four options with Derek Carr

Saints Insider ·

2025/02/19

New Saints coach Kellen Moore has nearly finalized his offensive staff, zeroing in on Doug Nussmeier as offensive coordinator and hiring several assistants. The biggest decision left on that side of the ball, of course, is what to do with quarterback Derek Carr. While he has struggled with injuries and consistency, Carr has been mostly productive and is by far the most reliable quarterback on the Saints' roster. However, he also carries a huge salary cap hit and has a no-trade clause. Our Saints

2025/01/29

The New Orleans Saints are still searching for their next head coach, and four candidates they reportedly had interest in took other jobs or removed themselves from consideration — Aaron Glenn, Joe Brady, and most recently Kliff Kingsbury and Mike McCarthy. That leaves Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore as the favorite. Does this mean the Saints are settling for a candidate they had ranked behind several others, or simply that a thorough process has led them here? In this
