Saints' Tyler Shough: Unlikely to play Saturday
Shough and most other starters are unlikely to play in Saturday's preseason game against Jacksonville, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Saints coach Kellen Moore said Thursday's joint practice with the Jaguars will be where Shough and other key players get their chance to square off with opponents. Moore did leave the door open for borderline starters to suit up, but it sounds like Shough, Chris Olave, Travis Etienne, etc. will all be held out.

Saints' Alvin Kamara: Listed as co-RB1 with Etienne
Kamara and Travis Etienne are listed as co-RB1s on the Saints' first unofficial depth chart of training camp, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
This comes as a bit of a surprise considering Etienne signed a big money deal (four years, $52 million) to join the Saints in the offseason, while Kamara agreed to a reworked contract (one year, $6 million) in mid-July to remain with the only team he's over known. However, Kamara has been taking on more of the passing-down reps during camp, with Etienne handling early downs, and how the running backs are listed on the depth chart suggests both will have regular roles in the offense. That said, the initial depth chart might simply be a sign of respect for a franchise icon as Kamara enters what could be his final season in New Orleans.

Saints' Travis Etienne: Co-starter with Kamara on depth chart
Etienne and Alvin Kamara are listed as co-RB1s on the Saints' first unofficial depth chart of training camp, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
After Etienne signed a four-year, $52 million contract with New Orleans in the offseason, he was expected to start over the incumbent Kamara, especially after the latter agreed to a reworked contract (one year, $6 million) in mid-July to stay with the team. Kamara has handled more of the third-down work in training camp, while Etienne has taken on early downs, but with the team now listing them as co-RB1s, there may be more of an even split between the two than initially thought. The depth chart listing could also simply be a sign of respect for a franchise icon as Kamara enters what could be his final season in New Orleans.

Saints' Cameron Jordan: Unknown timetable for return
Jordan (hamstring) could potentially be sidelined into the regular season, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Head coach Kellen Moore indicated Tuesday that Jordan could miss the start of the regular season with a hamstring injury he suffered at practice last Thursday, but at the very least he's expected to miss a chunk of training camp. Entering his 16th season in the league, the 37-year-old was still slated to start as a defensive end for New Orleans after totaling 47 tackles, including 10.5 sacks, last season. With Jordan's injury, the already depleted Saints defensive front will see more snaps from second-year defensive end Vernon Broughton while he recovers.

Saints' Derek Carr: Accepts adviser position at UCLA
UCLA football announced Monday that Carr has joined the program as a special adviser to head coach Bob Chesney, Paolo Uggetti of ESPN.com reports.
Carr announced his retirement from professional football in May 2025, but that hasn't deterred NFL teams from contacting him regarding a potential comeback. The 35-year-old quarterback remains on the Saints' reserve/retired list, so unless he's willing to return to New Orleans, he would need to be formally traded or waived before suiting up for another team. For his part, Carr noted during an appearance on NFL Network's "Good Morning Football" earlier this summer that he wouldn't completely close the door on a return to the NFL if the right opportunity presented itself, but barring an unforeseen development, the 35-year-old appears poised to sit out a second straight season. His decision to accept the opportunity within the UCLA program would seem to be a further indication that he's not actively planning to resume his playing career.

Saints' Tyler Shough: Looking more comfortable in Year 2
Shough has looked noticeably more comfortable and in command of the offense entering his second season, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
After competing with Spencer Rattler for the starting job last summer as a rookie, Shough has the keys to the offense headed into the 2026 regular season after he completed 67.6 percent of his passes for 2,384 yards and a 10:6 TD:INT over the second half of last season once he took hold of the job from Rattler. The Saints have since added first-round WR Jordyn Tyson and free-agent pickup Travis Etienne to Shough's arsenal, putting the pieces around him to build on his impressive rookie season. Shough is an upside pick in the later rounds of fantasy drafts. He's got continuity with coach Kellen Moore and is playing in what should be one of the league's fastest-paced offenses.

Saints' Dillon Radunz: Suffers ACL tear
Radunz (knee) tore his ACL during Saturday's practice, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Radunz signed a two-year deal with the Saints in March and will now miss year one of that contract. The left guard was one of the top reserve options for the team, so he will likely get surgery as soon as possible to begin preparing for the 2027 season.

Saints' John Ridgeway: Banged up back
Ridgeway suffered a back injury during Sunday's practice session, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Ridgeway was able to finish out the session, but the extent to which his back is injured is unclear. The defensive tackle missed most of the 2025 season with a shoulder injury, only participating in four regular-season games. If the back issue is of a similar severity, undrafted free agent out of Central Michigan Michael Heldman may see an increased snap share throughout the preseason and into the regular season.

Saints' Pete Werner: Sustains groin injury
Werner suffered a groin injury during Sunday's practice, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
The linebacker was able to finish the session, but the extent to which the groin issue will plague him is unclear. Werner has played through persistent issues before, such as the hand injury he suffered in 2025, so the 27-year-old might practice with the injury, pending medical clearance.

Saints' Cameron Jordan: Absent with hamstring issue
Jordan (hamstring) did not participate in Sunday's practice, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Jordan suffered a hamstring issue during Thursday's session, and the extent of the issue is still being evaluated. The 37-year-old veteran defensive end will likely have extra precautions in place for the injury. If Jordan misses a prolonged period of time, Michael Heldman and Vernon Broughton could see additional first-team snaps and preseason reps.

Saints' Julian Blackmon: Back to practice
Blackmon (knee) was a participant in Sunday's practice, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Blackmon exited Saturday's practice session early due to a knee issue but is already back in action for Sunday's session. The safety underwent further testing, with the determination evidently being that the issue was minor. The free safety's health means he can continue to compete with Jonas Sanker for the starting job.

Saints' Keeshawn Silver: Reverts to injured reserve
Silver (undisclosed) reverted to IR on Saturday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Silver opened training camp on the PUP list due to an undisclosed issue. He was activated Wednesday but was waived/injured just two days later, though it's unclear if he's dealing with a new injury or an aggravation of the previous one. Regardless, since he went unclaimed off waivers he's landed on IR, which means Silver will need to sit out the entire 2026 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with New Orleans.

Saints' Dillon Radunz: Leaves practice with knee injury
Radunz sustained a knee injury during Saturday's training camp practice, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Radunz tweaked his knee early in Saturday's practice, and he'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury and whether he'll be available for the Saints' preseason opener against the Jaguars on Saturday, Aug. 15. William Sherman would be in line for more snaps at offensive guard if Radunz were to miss time.

Saints' Chris Rumph: Managing ankle issue
Rumph didn't practice Saturday due to an ankle injury, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Per Jackson, Rumph left practice early Friday after hurting his ankle, and he wasn't ready to return Saturday. It's not clear how serious the issue is, but an extended absence could hurt Rumph's chances of making the 53-man roster.

Saints' Julian Blackmon: Leaves practice with knee injury
Blackmon was removed from Saturday's training camp practice due to a knee injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Blackmon will undergo further tests to determine the severity of his injury and determine a recovery plan. The seventh-year safety played only in Week 1 of the 2025 season and spent the rest of the year on the IR due to a torn labrum. Blackmon and Jonas Sanker are competing for a starting spot at safety next to Justin Reid.

Saints' Devin Neal: Nursing hamstring injury
Neal did not participate in Saturday's training camp practice due to a hamstring injury, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
Neal tweaked his hamstring during Thursday's practice, and the injury prevented him from participating in Saturday's session. The 2025 sixth-rounder is currently listed as the Saints' RB3, but an extended absence could open the window for Ty Chandler, Kendre Miller (back) or Audric Estime to take the No. 3 job. Neal will aim to be available for the Saints' preseason opener against the Jaguars on Saturday, Aug. 15.
