FOSTER MOREAU NEWS

Has touchdown wiped away in win Moreau logged zero targets during Sunday's 44-19 victory over the Cowboys.

Impact Moreau once again started Sunday after suffering a concussion during last week's win against the Panthers. The 27-year-old didn't get any looks during a clinical performance for quarterback Derek Carr, who went 11-for-16 passing for 243 yards and two touchdowns to one interception. However, Moreau would have recorded a 26-yard touchdown catch early in the third quarter, but the play was nullified by an ineligible downfield player penalty, thus setting up running back Alvin Kamara for his fourth and final touchdown rush later in the drive. Moreau still appeared to play as much or more than Juwan Johnson, who also finished without a target Sunday. It will be worth monitoring if either Moreau or Johnson see any sort of meaningful target share during next Sunday's contest versus Philadelphia.

Good to go Moreau (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Dallas, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Moreau was a limited practice participant Wednesday before upgrading to full Thursday and Friday. The lack of an injury designation suggests he's already cleared concussion protocol and will handle his norma role against the Cowboys. Moreau ran routes on only 44 percent of the Saints' pass plays in a Week 1 blowout of the Panthers, but he played 77 percent of snaps overall and put up a 4-43-1 receiving line with four targets on his 11 routes.

Puts in full practice Moreau (concussion) was a full practice participant Thursday.

Impact After he was a limited participant in the Saints' first Week 2 practice Wednesday, Moreau took a step forward by increasing his activity Thursday. Though Moreau is trending in the right direction as Sunday's game against the Cowboys approaches, the Saints haven't yet confirmed that the tight end has cleared the five-step concussion protocol. He'll need to attain clearance from an independent neurologist before being removed from the protocol and guaranteeing his availability for Sunday.

Has concussion, but limited Moreau practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday due to a concussion.

Impact Moreau departed in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's win against the Panthers to be evaluated for a head injury and was quickly ruled out. The Saints unsurprisingly are listing the tight end with a concussion this week, but his ability to handle some on-field work Wednesday indicates he's making progress through the five-step protocol for head injuries. In any case, Moreau will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to play in Sunday's game at Dallas.

Suffers head injury Sunday Moreau won't return to Sunday's game versus the Panthers due to a head injury, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Impact Moreau made a visit to the sideline tent in the fourth quarter before the Saints made a ruling on his status. He'll thus finish Week 1 with four catches (on four targets) for 43 yards and one touchdown. His target count surprisingly was ahead of fellow TEs Juwan Johnson (three) and Taysom Hill (two), but assuming he entered the concussion protocol, Moreau will need to complete its five steps in order to be cleared for his next game action.

Healthy ahead of Week 1 Moreau is healthy in advance of the 2024 season, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Impact After free agency opened in March 2023, Moreau underwent a physical with the Saints, which revealed a diagnosis of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. He immediately began treatment, signed a contract with New Orleans in May and was deemed to be in remission in early July. He proceeded to play in 15 regular-season games en route to a 21-193-1 line on 25 targets, but he revealed that the ankle injury that forced DNPs in Weeks 3 and 4 impacted him the rest of the way and eventually resulted in surgery in early January. With a little more than two weeks remaining before the 2024 campaign, Moreau is positioned behind Juwan Johnson on the TE depth chart, likely leaving him with a similar role to last year.

Minor role again Week 17 Moreau caught his only target for 13 yards during Sunday's 23-13 victory over the Buccaneers.

Impact Moreau logged exactly 13 receiving yards for the third week in a row. However, he recorded his lowest of number of targets over this span, as he had totaled 11 targets over the previous four games. The 26-year-old took a backseat role behind top tight end Juwan Johnson, who recorded team highs in targets (12), receptions (eight) and yards (90) versus Tampa Bay. The latter tight end seems to have reclaimed his role as New Orleans' top tight end over the past two games, as he has now logged 19 targets over the past two games after totaling just eight over the previous three contests. With Johnson and No. 1 wideout Chris Olave in position as the team's top pass catchers to go along with numerous other receiving options, Moreau's workload should remain minimal Week 18 against Atlanta.

Pair of catches in Week 13 loss Moreau brought in both targets for 28 yards in the Saints' 33-28 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Impact On a day when Rashid Shaheed's absence due to a thigh injury further atrophied a Saints receiving corps already down Michael Thomas (IR-knee), Moreau stepped up to provide some pass-catching production in the narrow loss. The fifth-year pro's two catches were his first since Week 9, while his yardage total was his second highest in a game this season. Moreau is likely to continue in a strict complementary role with sparse opportunity during a Week 14 home matchup against the Panthers.

Solid outing marred by bad drop Moreau accrued three receptions (on four targets) for 33 yards during Thursday's 31-24 loss against Jacksonville.

Impact Moreau once again slotted in as the Saints' top tight end with usual starter Juwan Johnson (calf) out for the fourth week in a row. The 26-year-old got out to a strong start in this step-up spot, but he failed to corral a potential game-tying touchdown pass from Derek Carr on the Saints' final offensive series. Moreau now has recorded four targets in back-to-back contests, totaling 66 receiving yards. With hybrid tight end Taysom Hill set to fulfill more of a jack-of-all-trades role, expect Moreau to continue serving as the Saints' starting tight end if Johnson remains sidelined against the Colts on Sunday, Oct. 29.
