Saints OL Nick Saldiveri (knee) out for season
Aug 20, 2023; Inglewood, California, USA; New Orleans Saints offensive tackle Nick Saldiveri (64) looks on against the Los Angeles Chargers during the second half at SoFi Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Orlando Ramirez-Imagn Images New Orleans Saints guard Nick Saldiveri will miss the 2025 season with a knee injury, head coach Kellen Moore confirmed Saturday.
Moore said Saldiveri, a third-round pick in 2023, was hurt during an indoor practice session Thursday and will be placed on injured reserve.
Saldiveri, who turns 25 later this month, appeared in four games (no starts) as a rookie in 2023 and started six of his 11 games last season before a knee injury in December ended his season. It is unclear if Thursday's injury is to the same knee as December's injury. He also underwent shoulder surgery at the end of the 2023 season.
Moore said the Saints have re-signed guard Shane Lemieux, 28, to replace Saldiveri on the training camp roster.
Lemieux played seven games (four starts) for New Orleans last season following four years with the New York Giants, who drafted him in the fifth round in 2020.
