Saints' Martin Emerson: Won't play against Las Vegas
Emerson (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Emerson injured his shoulder during the Saints' Week 2 win over the Ravens. He drew the questionable tag for Week 3 following a limited practice Friday, but he'll be sidelined for Sunday's game after failing to be cleared by medical staff following pregame warmups. Jayden Price, Michael Reid and Decamerion Richardson will provide depth in the secondary in Emerson's absence.

Saints' Martin Emerson: Headed to New Orleans
The Saints signed Emerson on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Emerson worked out with the team earlier in the day and seemingly impressed enough to earn a contract. The 25-year-old has spent the entirety of his three-year career with Cleveland, totaling 202 tackles (158 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four interceptions across 50 games. With the Saints lacking proven talent at cornerback, Emerson could have a chance to start alongside Kool-Aid McKinstry during the 2026 campaign.

Browns' Martin Emerson: Becomes unrestricted FA
Emerson (Achilles) becomes an unrestricted free agent when the offseason begins in March, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Emerson, who hoped to earn a contract extension this season, missed all of 2025 after tearing an Achilles last July. After two strong years upon his arrival as a third-round pick in 2022, Emerson experienced a regression in 2024 before suffering the injury. There hasn't been much news regarding the cornerback's recovery, although other players with a similar injury typically required six to eight months. That puts Emerson in line to be ready for offseason activities.
