With Week 16 in the books, let’s take a look at who stood out for New Orleans.
The New Orleans Saints were demolished by the Green Bay Packers 34-0 on Monday night in the first shutout of the 2024 NFL season.
This week’s player is more of a standout than a breakout as he’s become increasingly involved as the season has progressed. The standout player from the Saints’ Week 16 loss to the Packers is TE Foster Moreau.
There weren’t many bright spots during Monday night’s primetime blowout, but the emergence of Foster Moreau as the Saints’ clear-cut TE1 has been a promising sight for the future of the offense.
Moreau caught two of the three passes that came his way for a total of 33 yards (with a long of 21 and 10.5 yards after the catch per reception) and two first downs. He earned a 77.8 overall grade (81.6 receiving and 66.4 pass blocking) from Pro Football Focus, the highest among Saints in Week 16.
Moreau will get a shot at revenge during Week 17’s matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders.
