  Bresee was absent from Saturday's practice due to a foot injury, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports. There is no word on the severity of Bresee's foot injury at this point. He is coming off a productive rookie campaign that saw him accumulate 24 tackles, 4.5 sacks and six passes defended across 17 games. When healthy, the defensive tackle projects to boost depth on the Saints' interior defensive line this year.

• Saints' Bryan Bresee: Productive rookie campaign

  01/19/2024 • By RotoWire

  Bresee played all 17 games during the 2023 regular season, logging 24 tackles, including 4.5 sacks, and six passes defended. Bresee showed signs of potential stardom during his 2023 rookie campaign. The 2023 first-round pick logged fewer tackles than veteran defensive tackles Khalen Saunders (57) and Nathan Shepherd (50); however, Bresee contributed the third-most sacks to what was a relatively lax pass rush, and he tallied the most passes defended of any non-defensive back for the Saints. He also played at least 50 percent of defensive snaps in eight contests this season, and he played less than 40 percent of defensive snaps just once. Bresee will look to continue ascending during the 2024 campaign.

He'll look to build on Sunday's performance in Week 16 at the Rams.
