Christen Miller’s expanded role makes him a linchpin of the New Orleans Saints’ 2026 draft class after Bryan Bresee’s devastating ACL injury. The defensive tackle rotation now hinges on Miller’s versatility and veteran Nathan Shepherd’s experience, as the Saints seek interior disruption in a retooled front alongside names like Davon Godchaux and Vernon Broughton.
Kool-Aid McKinstry stands out as a true CB1 after a dominant training camp debut, shutting down receivers like Devaughn Vele and Ja’Lynn Polk and earning high praise from teammates and coaches. Kellen Moore wasted no time ramping up competition with intense 11-on-11 and 7-on-7 drills.
