NFL free agency is in full effect, with teams signing many of the major free agents and taking them off the market early, adding to their respective rosters as quickly as possible. The New Orleans Saints have been among that group, improving their offense and special teams immensely over these few weeks, and working to retain a few pieces as well.
With that in mind, their defense has somewhat fallen to the wayside in terms of focus, as Demario Davis and Alontae Taylor both move on, and Cameron Jordan remains on the open market. The team’s starting lineup on defense looks immensely different compared to 2025 at this juncture, but they still have time to sign pieces and focus on a few positional needs in the draft as well. Here is how things stand with the defensive unit at the moment.
EDGE: Chase Young
