The New Orleans Saints are in an unusual position. No, I’m not just talking about the departure of Drew Brees at quarterback or Sean Payton as head coach. I’m talking about something that could prove to be even more detrimental to the Saints’ chances of success in 2022 than even Brees and Payton getting replaced with Jameis Winston and Dennis Allen. I’m talking about the offensive line.
Over the past decade-and-a-half, the New Orleans have had one of the best offensive lines in the NFL. Anchors like Jon Stinchcomb, Jahri Evans, Zach Strief, and Terron Armstead are gone.
