Saints' Tanoh Kpassagnon: Moves to active/PUP list
Kpassagnon (Achilles) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Saints on Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
The defensive end tore his Achilles during the offseason. Kpassagnon played in all 17 games for the Saints last season, recording 19 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, and two passes defensed. The eighth-year pro should be in line for another depth role if he's able to return in 2024.

Saints' Tanoh Kpassagnon: Middling production in 2023
Kpassagnon appeared in all 17 games during the 2023 regular season, tallying 19 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, and two passes defended.
Kpassagnon played every regular-season game for the first time with the Saints, as he missed 11 games over the previous two campaigns. The 29-year-old still logged nine fewer tackles than the 2022 campaign when he tallied a career-high 28. Kpassagnon provided considerably more production than younger defensive ends Payton Turner and Isaiah Foskey, though these three will likely compete for a rotational role heading into the 2024 campaign.
