Saints' Zach Line: Totals 13 touches in 2019
Zach Line (knee) rushed seven times for 20 yards and caught six of 10 targets for 36 yards while suiting up in 12 regular-season contests in 2019.The SMU product saw a smattering of touches across the season, but he primarily worked as a blocker in front of Alvin Kamara and Latavius Murray whenever he saw the field on offense. Line failed to record a touchdown for the first time in three years with New Orleans, though his receptions and receiving yards were the most since he joined the team in 2017. A knee injury kept Line out of the New Orleans Saints' regular-season finale as well as the team's wild-card loss to the Vikings, but he should be back to full strength in advance of OTAs.
