We’re down to just 15 days until the New Orleans Saints’ season opener, and our countdown is nearing its end. Today we’re highlighting every player to wear No. 15 for the Saints, and it's heavy in the special teams category. Starting with Super Bowl XLIV champion Courtney Roby to a couple kickers of the 1970s in Charlie Durkee and Rich Szaro. Many of us also remember quarterback Trevor Siemian who started a handful of games for the team during the 2021 season.
