There’s a lot on the line for some players in the New Orleans Saints’ preseason finale with the Houston Texans, which head coach Dennis Allen emphasized to the team all week. Allen shared his message with FOX Sports sideline reporter Tom Rinaldi, who related it on the game broadcast. before kickoff.
“Talking to Dennis Allen, he said 45 of the roster spots are largely set, which means 8 are still up for grabs before final cuts are made Tuesday,” Rinaldi said. “That means, largely speaking in Allen’s words, ‘If we already thought positively of you, confirm what we thought. If not, prove us wrong with the opportunity you get to play in this game tonight.'”
