Official Saints News: New Orleans Saints Confirm Three Stars To Release Going Into The Summer

 3 Saints Players Who Could Be Cut Before the 2024 Season

As the New Orleans Saints prepare for the 2024 season, they will need to make several roster cuts throughout the offseason. Here are three players who might be released.

 Offseason Excitement and the Reality of Roster Cuts

With all 32 NFL teams in OTAs, there’s a sense of excitement around the league. Teams are optimistic due to talented rookies, new veteran signings, and the ever-present hope of a Super Bowl run. However, this positivity will soon give way to the reality of roster cuts as teams trim down to the players they will carry into the season.

Depth and Cuts: Saints’ Situation

The Saints have added numerous veteran players to bolster their depth this offseason. They have already released Kellen Mond after drafting Spencer Rattler. Here are three more players who might not make it through the summer with the team.

 Potential Cuts

1. **QB Nathan Peterman**

– **Current Roster:** Derek Carr, Jake Haener, Spencer Rattler, Nathan Peterman
– **Reason:** The Saints are unlikely to keep four quarterbacks. Peterman is the most likely to be cut, as Haener and Rattler will compete for the backup quarterback position.

2. **LB D’Marco Jackson**

– **Highlighted By:** Bleacher Report
– **Reason:** The Saints have added multiple linebackers this offseason, making it likely that at least one will be cut. Jackson will need to demonstrate his value as a special teams player and a depth linebacker to secure his spot.

 

3. **DE Payton Turner**

– **Situation:** Entering a crucial year for his career

– **Reason:**

The 2021 first-round pick has struggled with injuries, playing only 15 games in three seasons. With Carl Granderson’s emergence, Chase Young’s arrival, and Cam Jordan still in the mix, Turner might not make it to his fourth season with the Saints.

### Conclusion

The New Orleans Saints will face tough decisions as they trim their roster for the 2024 season. Quarterback Nathan Peterman, linebacker D’Marco Jackson, and defensive end Payton Turner are among the players who could be cut before the season begins.
