They also apparently are taking a look at why he was suspended for 10 games to start the 2025 season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s been one of their leaders for an extended period of time on a very successful team, coach Kellen Moore said Monday, via Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.football. \u201cObviously, there\u2019s been some stuff <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/nick_underhill\/status\/1993046536276558208?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">that\u2019s been unfortunate<\/a>. He\u2019s gone through an experience and I think it\u2019s about collecting what that experience was.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the situation was, it was enough to result in a lengthy suspension (only one game short of Deshaun Watson\u2019s) under the Personal Conduct Policy, a suspension he accepted despite denying all accusations of misconduct during massage therapy sessions.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is that talent buys opportunities. If Tucker shows up and makes all of his kicks from every reasonable distance, he\u2019s more likely to get a shot with the Saints. If he\u2019s shaky and inconsistent, he won\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Tucker\u2019s history is enough, in the view of the Saints, to get him a chance to show what he can do. And the Saints surely have considered the impact their flirtation with Tucker may have on some of the fanbase.<\/p>\n<p>Especially since kicker is one of many current problems the 2-9 Saints currently have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Saints are taking a look at kicker Justin Tucker\u2019s skills.
