Often looked at as a strength of the team last season, the future at defensive tackle for the New Orleans Saints may look different next season. At the top of the list is the future of defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins.
When healthy, Rankins has shown to be an absolute force in the middle. Take his 2018 campaign for example. Rankins was able to start all 16 games and posted career highs in sacks (8) and tackles (40). This prompted the Saints to pick up his 5th-year option on the team.
Health, however, may be a grave concern moving forward.
