NEW ORLEANS -- The New Orleans Saints open the 2024 NFL regular season against the Carolina Panthers on Sept. 8 at Caesars Superdome.
The Saints head into the season after a summer of questions regarding their 2017 draft class. Right tackle Ryan Ramczyk was recently put on the reserve/physically unable to perform list, contract issues with running back Alvin Kamara and trade rumors regarding cornerback Marshon Lattimore have been some of the key issues they've faced this offseason.
The biggest addition to the roster is pass rusher Chase Young, who signed in free agency before undergoing an offseason neck procedure. Young's health status will be another key question going forward.
The offensive line will be the biggest shakeup in 2024 with Ramczyk sidelined, as the Saints are deciding on as many as three starting spots. The backup quarterback race, and whether the Saints choose to keep both young quarterbacks, will be another battle to watch.
Here is the 53-man roster projection:
