The New Orleans Saints’ most recent free-agent addition comes at the running back position, with the signing of Ty Chandler from the Minnesota Vikings. Chandler brings a burst of explosiveness as a 4.3-speed runner, adding energy to both the backfield and special teams as a return option on kickoffs.

As the team continues to build depth at the position, they find themselves in a solid spot overall. However, with the possibility of Alvin Kamara’s retirement looming, the Saints will likely look to add another back in the draft, potentially reshaping the room significantly compared to last season.

Here’s a look at the current running back depth chart, ranked by offensive snaps played in 2025:
