The New Orleans Saints are thriving. Foster Moreau was able to haul in a high-point touchdown reception at the back of the end zone to put the Saints up 17-0 in the first quarter of Week 1. This is the second touchdown of his Saints tenure, as he looks to improve off of his first season in 2023 and become the strong target he was previously for Derek Carr with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Louisiana native Moreau will be looking to cut into the tight end snap count, as Juwan Johnson and Taysom Hill have a decent amount taken up already when looking at last season. The touchdown reception in Week 1 is a great start, as he was able to catch a rifle of a pass by Carr to sneak it by the defensive back and get his feet down in bounds right in front of fellow tight end Juwan Johnson.
