Ross Jackson· Aug 28, 2026

Ross Jackson gives his final preseason 53-man roster projection for the New Orleans Saints, naming who makes the initial roster at every position group, who starts on injured reserve or the practice squad, and who the five starting offensive linemen and kicker will be.

“I'm gonna have the Saints still keeping all three quarterbacks.”

67 checkable claims — 57 roster spot calls and 10 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.
