The Saints will keep five or six receivers when the team cuts down from the current 90-man roster to the 53-man roster for the regular season on August 30. There are currently 11 receivers in camp so five or six will be cut and one, possibly two, will be brought back for the practice squad.
We’re going to be looking in this piece specifically at the young receivers, those in the league for three years or less. We’ll separate them by how they stand, from our perspective, heading into the second game of the preseason, on the road, against the Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday, Aug 18, at 3 p.
