  Saints | Derek Carr out of game    Sun Dec 3, 03:49 PM

New Orleans Saints QB Derek Carr (arm) left the Week 13 game early after suffering an apparent arm injury.

Footballguys view: Jameis Winston is in for Carr again. This could also get Taysom Hill a larger opportunity to take snaps as a quarterback. At this point, Winston should be carried in 2QB/Superflex even if Carr can play next week against the Panthers.

  Saints | Rashid Shaheed unlikely for Week 13    Mon Nov 27, 03:21 PM

New Orleans Saints WR Rashid Shaheed (quad) is unlikely to play in Week 13 against the Detroit Lions, according to sources Monday, Nov. 27.

Footballguys view: The Saints have injuries at the wide receiver position. It's time for guys like AT Perry to elevate their game if needed. We love Perry's game, and our very own Cecil Lammey compared him to Tim Patrick when he watched the rookie at the East-West Shrine Bowl earlier this year.

  Saints | Chris Olave finishes with 114 yards    Sun Nov 26, 06:01 PM

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (concussion) caught seven passes for 114 yards against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12. He was targeted nine times during the game. As previously reported, Olave left the game early because of a concussion.

Footballguys view: Olave was on his way to a huge game before leaving with the concussion. We'll be watching the injury report closely to see if he can suit up against the Lions in a very fantasy-friendly matchup next week. With Rashid Shaheed also leaving this game injured and Michael Thomas on injured reserve, A.T. Perry and Keith Kirkwood are the top two wide receivers, with Taysom Hill and Juwan Johnson possibly getting more targets from the tight end position if Olave can't play in Week 13.

New Orleans Saints QB Taysom Hill caught two passes for 55 yards against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12. He also rushed for 26 yards on seven carries during the game.

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara rushed for 69 yards on 15 carries against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12. He also caught four passes for 50 yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Kamara looked spry and strong and he will have to shoulder more of the passing game next week Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (leg) both leaving this game early. He's a solid RB1 play against Detroit next week.

  Saints | Derek Carr surpasses 300-yard mark    Sun Nov 26, 05:32 PM

New Orleans Saints QB Derek Carr went 24-for-38 for 304 yards, zero touchdowns and one interception against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12. He also rushed for seven yards on two carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Carr was sharp throwing downfield early in this game, but the offense was unable to finish drives with touchdowns, and he lost his top two receivers during the game. The Saints fell back into a tie for first place in the division heading into a tough home game against the Lions.

  Saints | Alvin Kamara piling up receptions    Sat Nov 25, 12:47 PM

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara's 50 receptions this season are tied for 24th in the NFL and are the most among running backs.

Footballguys view: No matter if it's Derek Carr or Jameis Winston, Kamara is a consistent target out of the backfield. While Kamara is averaging a career-low 3.7 yards per carry, his receiving ability is a boost for his fantasy value. At this time, Kamara ranks as the no.28 fantasy running back in standard-scoring formats.

  Saints | Derek Carr still in protocol    Mon Nov 20, 02:21 PM

New Orleans Saints QB Derek Carr (concussion) remains in the concussion protocol, according to sources Monday, Nov. 20.

Footballguys view: As per usual, Carr will have to get through the protocol before he can resume playing. That means he'll have to be cleared to practice and then see how his body responds to more work. The Saints had a bye in Week 11, and they play the Falcons in Week 12. Jameis Winston will start if Carr can't be cleared in time.
