Locked On Saints - Daily Podcast On The New Orleans Saints

Zach Wilson’s fiery preseason performance is igniting the New Orleans Saints’ QB2 battle, showcasing a sharp connection with Bub Means and elevating the team’s offensive outlook. With Wilson completing 11 of 16 passes for 145 yards and Means grabbing four catches for 77 yards, the spotlight is on whether this dynamic duo can shake up the depth chart and roster spots.

 

On defense, Jayden Price and Jaylan Ford are building on strong camps with standout play, including interceptions and key tackles, all while adapting seamlessly to the Brandon Staley system. Edge rusher Mike Heldman’s two sacks and backfield presence warrants excitement about his preseason momentum as the Saints prepare for joint practices against the Cowboys and Rams.

Tyler Shough’s rapid mastery of the New Orleans Saints offensive system set the tone in productive joint practices against the Jacksonville Jaguars, connecting with Chris Olave for explosive gains and making veteran checks at the line. On defense, Julian Blackmon’s cerebral play snagged an early Trevor Lawrence interception, while Chase Young’s relentless edge pressure and mind games rattled Jaguars tackles, giving the Saints the intimidation factor they’ve long been seeking.

Unheralded risers like Carl Granderson, Bryce Lance, and Nathan Shepherd fueled the Saints’ depth, as the edge rusher room flashed with interior versatility and big-play ability. Young playmakers Jayden Price and Barion Brown aim for their preseason breakout, while questions linger about Jordan Tyson’s health.

The New Orleans Saints answered major questions with authority during joint practices against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tyler Shough silenced doubters with a commanding offensive display, connecting deep with Chris Olave, Bryce Lance, and Devaughn Vele, racking up four (possibly five) touchdowns and showcasing poise and precision under pressure. The Saints’ offense not only attacked downfield but also found success in red zone efficiency, while the connection between Zach Wilson and Bub Means, plus a standout moment from Spencer Rattler to Barion Brown, offered extra optimism.

 

On defense, Chase Young dominated the Jaguars’ backfield, claiming up to six sacks and setting the tone for a unit determined to prove its mettle. Stellar performances from Kool-Aid McKinstry, Quincy Riley, and a Julian Blackmon interception revealed secondary depth, even as the low red zone defense gave up seven touchdowns.
