Tyrann Mathieu, Demario Davis make the NFL 30 over 30 list
A group of NFL.com writers came together to compile and rank the league’s 30 best players over the age of 30, and both Demario Davis and Tyrann Mathieu represented the New Orleans Saints on that list. The veterans were only separated by three spots. Davis came in at No. 21 and Mathieu wasn’t far behind at No. 24. Davis has been a common appearance on rankings lately. His ability to impact the quarterback by applying pressure has been the recurring theme. But NFL.com’s Dan Parr took a different route to highlight his strengths: Davis obviously knows how to blitz into the backfield to make...

The Saints are spectacularly, monumentally, mind-bogglingly screwed
It’s difficult to say much about the NFL with certainty when training camps are just opening around the league, but one thing is abundantly clear: The Saints are screwed. On Thursday night it was revealed that All-Pro right tackle Ryan Ramczyk was done for the year due to issues resulting from his offseason knee surgery. Slow recovery and complications led to Ramczyk missing OTAs and the veteran minicamp, making the announcement an acknowledgment that the organization isn’t confident he can contribute in 2024 — and it might even spell the end to his time in New Orleans. Recent injuries have been brutal for Ramczyk, who has missed 12 games in the last three years, which is far more pronounced due to the high cap figure he’s carried.
