​The Saints put forth a middling 2025 season, fitting right in with the mediocrity of the NFC South. Year one of Kellen Moore as head coach saw six wins, though a quarterback change to seasoned rookie Tyler Shough proved to yield promising results in the back half of the season.Points per game: 18 (28th) Total yards per game: 313.6 (23rd)Plays per game: 63.2 (11th)Dropbacks per game: 42.2 (7th)    Dropback EPA per play: -0.03 (27th)       Designed rush attempts per game: 24.1 (24th)  Rush EPA per play: -0.16 (31st)Denver Broncos v Las Vegas Raiders – NFL 20252026 Rotoworld Fantasy Football Team Previews HubAdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementGet ready for 2026 fantasy football drafts with in-depth previews for all 32 teams throughout the summer. Rotoworld Staff,For a Saints team that was still trying to find a franchise quarterback and hired a rookie head coach last season, a six-win result is not out of the ordinary. Shough added some energy to Moore’s offense when he took over the starting role in Week 9. After going 1-7 to start the season, the Saints finished 5-4 to end the season. The offense showed a willingness to throw the ball, ranking No. 7 in dropbacks per game last season, though it came with a No. 27 rank in dropback EPA per play.

The 26-year-old caught 100 passes for 1,163 yards and nine touchdowns last season but missed the season finale due to a blood clot in his lungs. Still recovering from the blood clot issue and having a history of concussions, Olave has some injury concerns around him. He is a target magnet, commanding a 29.4-percent target share last season.
