Saints' Etienne Is Still Popular with Ex-Jags Teammates, Touts Tuten's Potential with Jacksonville
The sold-out session gives starters and roster hopefuls live reps against a playoff team, with several Saints veterans resting or sidelined.
- On Thursday, the New Orleans Saints hosted the Jacksonville Jaguars for a sold-out joint practice from 9:00-11:00 a.m. at the Ochsner Sports Performance Center in Metairie, Louisiana.
- Saints defensive coordinator Brandon Staley sought fresh competition after 11 practices, noting the team needed to face an opponent other than themselves; the Saints offense has struggled throughout camp.
- Running back Travis Etienne Jr. reunited with Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence after practice, catching up following his March signing with the Saints on a four-year contract worth up to $52 million.
- Jaguars head coach Liam Coen praised the controlled environment, stating "It's a controlled environment that you're still getting physical work, but you're thudding," while running back Bhayshul Tuten credited Etienne's mentorship.
- Most starters will sit out Saturday's 3:00 p.m. preseason game at the Superdome, as both coaches deemed the joint practice sufficient work before three additional joint practices and three preseason games remain.
