Bresee (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jets, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports. Bresee will not return to Sunday's game due to a knee injury, so Jonathan Bullard and Nathan Shepherd should see more snaps at defensive end the rest of the way. Bresee is in jeopardy of missing the Saints' Week 17 road tilt against the Titans on Sunday, Dec. 28.

Bresee (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jets, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Bresee went to the locker room in the second half to have his knee evaluated by medical staff. Nathan Shepherd and Jonathan Bullard should see more snaps at defense end for as long as Bresee is out of the game.

Bresee collected 25 tackles (17 solo), including 7.5 sacks, three pass breakups and a forced fumble across 17 regular-season appearances for the Saints in 2024. Bresee's overall production doesn't jump off the page, as he logged just one more tackle than he did during his rookie 2023 season. But, he led the team in sacks and played the most defensive snaps (667) of any defensive tackle for New Orleans. The highlight of his season came in the Week 14 win versus the Giants, when he blocked a 35-yard field-goal attempt that would have tied the game late in the fourth quarter. Bresee should come into the 2025 campaign as one of the leaders for New Orleans' defensive line and pass rush.

Breese logged 1.0 sacks and two pass defenses during Sunday's 14-11 win over the Giants. Bresee made the biggest play of the game Sunday when he jumped over the Giants' offensive line and blocked Graham Gano's 35-yard field-goal attempt late in the fourth quarter to seal the game for the Saints. Bresee has logged 7.5 sacks through 13 regular-season games, 3.5 of which have come over his last three outings.

Bresee recorded 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 21-14 loss versus the Rams. Bresee was able to put a notch in the sack column for the second game in a row in Week 13, getting to Matthew Stafford on a third down to force a Rams punt late in the third quarter. He enters Week 14 with the second most sacks in the league by a defensive tackle (6.5) behind only two-time Pro-Bowler Dexter Lawrence (9.0).
