Bradley Roby Fantasy

The New Orleans Saints and cornerback Bradley Roby agreed to an undisclosed contract extension on Tuesday night, according to a source. The extension will primarily give the Saints extra salary cap space in 2022. New Orleans also restructured defensive end Marcus Davenport's contract on Tuesday to create an additional $6.8144 million in cap space, so the Saints could be getting ready for a blockbuster acquisition of Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson. The Saints acquired Roby in a trade with the Texans before last season, and he finished 2021 with 23 tackles (19 solo), three tackles for loss, three QB hits, one interception, five passes defensed and one sack in 14 games (one start).

The New Orleans Saints are acquiring cornerback Bradley Roby from the Houston Texans on Wednesday, according to sources. Roby is suspended for Week 1 as he completes his six-game suspension from last season for a banned substance, but he should help the Saints immediately at a position of need when he returns for Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers. The Saints were aggressively looking for cornerback help opposite Marshon Lattimore. In 10 games before his suspension with the Texans last season, Roby had 37 tackles, seven passes defensed and one interception. The Saints defense probably went undrafted in the majority of fantasy leagues, and they shouldn't be on anyone's weekly radar to kick off the season in their matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Houston Texans cornerback Bradley Roby will miss the rest of the 2020 season after he was suspended for six games for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances. Roby's teammate, wide receiver Will Fuller V, was hit with the same suspension on Monday and will also miss the rest of this year. Houston's secondary was already vulnerable with the 28-year-old Roby in the fold, so this will make them even more of a target for those looking to stream opposing receivers down the stretch. The Texans Defense has allowed the 10th-most fantasy points per game to wideouts, which is good news for quarterback Philip Rivers and the Colts in Week 13. Roby finishes 2020 with 37 tackles (33 solo), one interception, seven passes defensed and one fumble recovery in 10 games.
