So far, the 2020 NFL season has not looked like any that came before it. And that will continue to be the case underneath the COVID-19 pandemic. For New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis, the next challenge is clear: evaluating his roster without preseason games.
While final say on personnel decisions comes down to Saints coach Sean Payton, Loomis and his front office staff do an important job in assembling the roster for Payton and his coaches to parse through. The more information gathered, the better; so it’s going to be difficult to do that without preseason game tape to study.
