This is something to look out for: KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson reports that the New Orleans Saints are hosting tight end J.P. Holtz on a free agent visit Tuesday. Holtz spent most of the 2022 season on the Saints’ practice squad, totaling 85 snaps on offense and 42 reps on special teams across six games. He wasn’t re-signed after the season ended but has had a few workouts with different teams.
His return to New Orleans follows a couple of injuries to the depth chart at tight end. Veteran blocking specialist Jesse James exited Monday’s practice with a groin muscle injury, after second-year pro Lucas Krull suffered what head coach Dennis Allen said was a tailbone injury on an awkward fall in the end zone.
