Take a look: Saints players report to Phase One of offseason program

There are signs of life for New Orleans Saints football, as players reported to Metairie on Monday for Phase One of the team’s offseason program. With the 2026 NFL Draft just days away, news like this can easily get overlooked, but we’re here to make sure fans stay updated on their team’s preparation for the upcoming season. During Phase One, the Saints will take part in a structured strength and conditioning program for the next two weeks before transitioning into on-field work.

This portion of the offseason is limited to meetings, workouts, and rehab activities for players. It is also voluntary, meaning attendance can vary. That said, it’s always worth noting who is in town, especially newcomers, returning players, and seasoned veterans looking to set the tone early in the offseason.

New arrivals like Kaden Elliss joined Tyler Shough, Chase Young, and Erik McCoy in the building. While attendance is voluntary, as mentioned earlier, having more faces in the facility could signify stronger buy-in and help set a positive tone early for the program. Here's a look at who reported for the first day of work: Okay, I sleuthed as best I could, here's who I caught in alphabetical order.
