Problem solved.\n            <\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"TeamLogo-image\" alt=\"team logo\" src=\"https:\/\/sports.cbsimg.net\/fly\/images\/team-logos\/421.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/teams\/NO\/new-orleans-saints\/\" aria-label=\"home team page\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"TeamLogo-image\" alt=\"team logo\" src=\"https:\/\/sports.cbsimg.net\/fly\/images\/team-logos\/421.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n                                                <\/a><\/p>\n<p>                        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/players\/29124411\/carnell-tate\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" alt=\"player headshot\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1756291484_847_29124411.png\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n                    Ohio State<\/p>\n<p>             \u2022 Jr<\/p>\n<p>             \u2022 6&#8217;2&#8243;<\/p>\n<p>            \/ 192 lbs\n                <\/p>\n<p>            Projected Team<\/p>\n<p>                                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/teams\/NO\/new-orleans-saints\/\" class=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">New Orleans<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                                    PROSPECT RNK<\/p>\n<p>                                18th<\/p>\n<p>                                    POSITION RNK<\/p>\n<p>                                3rd<\/p>\n<p>                                        REC<\/p>\n<p>                                    51<\/p>\n<p>                                        REYDS<\/p>\n<p>                                    875<\/p>\n<p>                                        YDS\/REC<\/p>\n<p>                                    17.2<\/p>\n<p>                                        TDS<\/p>\n<p>                                    9<\/p>\n<p>\n                New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough needs another reliable target in the passing game outside of Chris Olave, who is fresh off a career year.

Plus, he&#8217;s young: he&#8217;ll be 21-years-old for his entire rookie season. Hood was also the only SEC player with an interception return touchdown and a fumble return touchdown last season.\n            <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Indiana \u2022 Jr \u2022 6&#8217;5&#8243; \/ 236 lbs Projected Team Las Vegas PROSPECT RNK 1st POSITION RNK 1st&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":872002,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2067],"tags":[4955,390,254,117,53,260,391,256,54,331,257,258,113,7,519,345,253,392,125,110,393,262,58,251,259,249,55,1917,56,255,2321,2469,6,15,10395,15608,30,109,57,118163,525,252,261,250,394,111],"class_list":{"0":"post-872001","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-giants","8":"tag-2026-nfl-draft","9":"tag-arizona-cardinals","10":"tag-atlanta-falcons","11":"tag-baltimore-ravens","12":"tag-buffalo-bills","13":"tag-carolina-panthers","14":"tag-chicago-bears","15":"tag-cincinnati-bengals","16":"tag-cleveland-browns","17":"tag-college-football","18":"tag-dallas-cowboys","19":"tag-denver-broncos","20":"tag-detroit-lions","21":"tag-football","22":"tag-giants","23":"tag-green-bay-packers","24":"tag-houston-texans","25":"tag-indianapolis-colts","26":"tag-jacksonville-jaguars","27":"tag-kansas-city-chiefs","28":"tag-las-vegas-raiders","29":"tag-los-angeles-chargers","30":"tag-los-angeles-rams","31":"tag-miami-dolphins","32":"tag-minnesota-vikings","33":"tag-new-england-patriots","34":"tag-new-orleans-saints","35":"tag-new-york","36":"tag-new-york-giants","37":"tag-new-york-jets","38":"tag-newyork","39":"tag-newyorkgiants","40":"tag-nfl","41":"tag-nfl-draft","42":"tag-nfl-draft-predictions","43":"tag-nfl-draft-prospects","44":"tag-nfl-mock-draft","45":"tag-philadelphia-eagles","46":"tag-pittsburgh-steelers","47":"tag-predicting-the-nfl-draft","48":"tag-raiders","49":"tag-san-francisco-49ers","50":"tag-seattle-seahawks","51":"tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers","52":"tag-tennessee-titans","53":"tag-washington-commanders"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872001","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=872001"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/872001\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/872002"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=872001"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=872001"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=872001"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
