FosterMoreau

News: 2 days agoMoreau played 31 of the Saints' 72 snaps on offense and didn't draw a target in Sunday's 24-15 loss to the Falcons.

Spin: Despite playing at least 30 percent of the snaps in each of the Saints' last four games, Moreau has drawn just one target in that span while he's been deployed primarily as a blocker. Moreau's downturn in involvement in the passing game has coincided with the return of top tight end Juwan Johnson, who has played the past four games after being sidelined from Weeks 4 through 7 with a calf injury.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Moreau signed with the Saints after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Raiders. The 2019 fourth-round pick has thus far spent his career as a backup and spot starter behind Darren Waller. He reached career high marks in targets, receptions and receiving yards in 2022, but hasn't cleared three TDs in a season since 2019. His best fantasy finish was 25th in 2021. The 26-year-old will battle Juwan Johnson for starting duties in New Orleans, though Johnson's passing-game chops suggest Moreau's targets will be limited. He's no more than a deep sleeper for fantasy relevance.
