Saints Mull Noah Fant After Johnson Injury

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson suffered a groin injury during Wednesday's practice, but multiple sources report it is minor and he should miss only a few days. Johnson recently signed a three-year, $30.75 million extension following a standout 2024 season and remains a key figure in Kellen Moore’s offense. The Saints are short-handed at tight end with Foster Moreau and Taysom Hill on the PUP list, and Treyton Welch also exiting practice with an undisclosed issue. Head coach Kellen Moore downplayed the severity of these injuries but noted the team may need to make roster or tactical adjustments if the situation continues. The Saints have considered bringing in veteran tight end Noah Fant as insurance, although no agreement has been reached. The team remains optimistic about Johnson’s quick recovery and continued impact.
