• Saints' Foster Moreau: Has touchdown wiped away in win

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Moreau logged zero targets during Sunday's 44-19 victory over the Cowboys. Moreau once again started Sunday after suffering a concussion during last week's win against the Panthers. The 27-year-old didn't get any looks during a clinical performance for quarterback Derek Carr, who went 11-for-16 passing for 243 yards and two touchdowns to one interception. However, Moreau would have recorded a 26-yard touchdown catch early in the third quarter, but the play was nullified by an ineligible downfield player penalty, thus setting up running back Alvin Kamara for his fourth and final touchdown rush later in the drive. Moreau still appeared to play as much or more than Juwan Johnson, who also finished without a target Sunday. It will be worth monitoring if either Moreau or Johnson see any sort of meaningful target share during next Sunday's contest versus Philadelphia.

• Saints' Foster Moreau: Good to go

  Moreau (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Dallas, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports. Moreau was a limited practice participant Wednesday before upgrading to full Thursday and Friday. The lack of an injury designation suggests he's already cleared concussion protocol and will handle his normal role against the Cowboys. Moreau ran routes on only 44 percent of the Saints' pass plays in a Week 1 blowout of the Panthers, but he played 77 percent of snaps overall and put up a 4-43-1 line with four targets on his 11 routes.

• Saints' Foster Moreau: Puts in full practice

  Moreau (concussion) was a full practice participant Thursday. After he was a limited participant in the Saints' first Week 2 practice Wednesday, Moreau took a step forward by increasing his activity Thursday. Though Moreau is trending in the right direction as Sunday's game against the Cowboys approaches, the Saints haven't yet confirmed that the tight end has cleared the five-step concussion protocol. He'll need to attain clearance from an independent neurologist before being removed from the protocol and guaranteeing his availability for Sunday.

• Saints' Foster Moreau: Suffers head injury Sunday

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Moreau won't return to Sunday's game versus the Panthers due to a head injury, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports. Moreau made a visit to the sideline tent in the fourth quarter before the Saints made a ruling on his status. He'll thus finish Week 1 with four catches (on four targets) for 43 yards and one touchdown. His target count surprisingly was ahead of fellow TEs Juwan Johnson (three) and Taysom Hill (two), but assuming he entered the concussion protocol, Moreau will need to complete its five steps in order to be cleared for his next game action.

• Saints' Foster Moreau: Healthy ahead of Week 1

  Moreau is healthy in advance of the 2024 season, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports. After free agency opened in March 2023, Moreau underwent a physical with the Saints, which revealed a diagnosis of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. He immediately began treatment, signed a contract with New Orleans in May and was deemed to be in remission in early July. He proceeded to play in 15 regular-season games en route to a 21-193-1 line on 25 targets, but he revealed that the ankle injury that forced DNPs in Weeks 3 and 4 impacted him the rest of the way and eventually resulted in surgery in early January. With a little more than two weeks remaining before the 2024 campaign, Moreau is positioned behind Juwan Johnson on the TE depth chart, likely leaving him with a similar role to last year.
