Saints trade DT Davon Godchaux to the Jacksonville Jaguars

TRADE: Jaguars Trade For Saints DT Davon Godchaux

Shedeur Sanders Breaks Silence on ‘Out of Context’ Saints Comments Amid Viral Backlash
Quarterback Shedeur Sanders faces backlash after his midweek remarks about the New Orleans Saints defense were deemed critical. Following Cleveland’s 23‑22 overtime loss to New Orleans on Nov. 8, Sanders used the post‑game press conference to apologize, saying his comments were taken out of context and that he failed to communicate clearly. Saints DE Carl Granderson confirmed the team heard the remarks, and coach Kellen Moore referenced the video in a meeting. Sanders, who started in place of an injured Deshaun Watson, threw for 297 yards, two TDs and a 39‑yard overtime score, but Cleveland fell to 5‑4 while the Saints improved to 3‑5.

Giants rookie sensation Malik Nabors, who set a franchise record with 109 catches in 2024 and rebounded from a 2025 ACL tear, is firing back at FOX analysts after they criticized his on‑field expressions during the Eagles game. Nabors, now 23, posted a scathing tweet demanding cameras stay off him, insisting his neutral face doesn’t reflect his effort. He’s logged 53 catches for 648 yards and two touchdowns through Week 9 of the 2026 season, including a 12‑reception, 165‑yard effort against New Orleans. The dispute spotlights the growing tension between elite athletes and instant TV commentary.
What Does T.J. Paganetti Firing Actually Fix for the Saints?
After a dismal 18-yard, 17-carry game against Pittsburgh, the New Orleans Saints fired run‑game coordinator T.J. Paganetti on Nov. 2 and handed the reins to offensive line coach Brendan Nugent. Paganetti, who helped the Eagles rank second in rushing en route to a Super Bowl LIX win, saw New Orleans linger near the bottom of the league (28th in yards per game, 30th in yards per carry) in 2026. Nugent, known for mixed results on offensive lines with the Saints and Chargers, now leads weekly run structures while RB coach Joel Thomas handles situational planning. Players and head coach Kellen Moore cite communication and schematic issues, not just coaching, as the root cause. The Saints also reclaimed RB Audric Estime off waivers, but the real test will be whether Nugent’s expanded role can finally spark a consistent rushing attack.

The Fantasy Football USAGE Report | Week 9, 2026
Week 9 of the Fantasy Football Usage Report breaks down quarterback and skill‑position usage trends that could reshape Superflex lineups.
