New Orleans initially listed MVS with a chest injury but added illness Friday. We'll see about his status Monday, but Valdes-Scantling is probably not worth waiting for in your lineup.

Saints interim HC Darren Rizzi informed the team today that QB Jake Haener will start this weekend's game vs. the Commanders, according to insider Nick Underhill. It'll be Haener's first career start. The 2023 fourth-round pick has completed just 49% of his 29 passes in mop-up duty across four different games this season. Try to avoid Haener and the entire Saints passing game in fantasy lineups this week. New Orleans is implied for only 18 points.

Saints TE Taysom Hill suffered a torn ACL and "additional damage" to his left knee in the Week 13 loss to the Rams, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That ends Hill's 2024 season and might challenge his availability for the start of the 2025 campaign. Hill will turn 35 in August. He's signed with the Saints through 2025.
