Saints Sign Marquez Valdes-Scantling Amid Injuries

News summary

The New Orleans Saints have officially signed wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling in response to injuries plaguing their roster, particularly the season-ending injury to Rashid Shaheed and the uncertain return of Chris Olave. Valdes-Scantling, who previously played for the Buffalo Bills after winning two Super Bowls with the Kansas City Chiefs, struggled this season with only two receptions for 26 yards before his release. The Saints, looking for offensive depth, hosted him for a workout and see him as a potential deep threat to complement their receiving corps. Valdes-Scantling's seven-year career includes 188 receptions for 3,181 yards and 16 touchdowns, but he has not surpassed 500 receiving yards since 2022. His experience in high-pressure playoff situations could provide valuable support to a Saints team currently facing challenges on offense, including the absence of starting quarterback Derek Carr. The Saints will next compete against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 8.
