New Orleans Saints right tackle Ryan Ramczyk has been placed on the reserve/physically unable to perform (PUP) list, causing him to miss the entire 2024 season due to lingering knee issues. This follows offseason knee surgery and limited participation in team activities. Ramczyk's absence is a significant blow to the Saints' offensive line, which has already seen other departures. The team has prepared for this scenario by drafting Oregon State tackle Taliese Fuaga in the first round and signing veteran Olisaemeka Udoh. Additionally, other key players like tight end Juwan Johnson and wide receiver Chris Olave have been placed on injury lists but could return before the season starts. The Saints will now rely on younger players like Trevor Penning and Nick Saldiveri to step up in the upcoming season.
