Lucas Krull Makes Case For Roster Spot In Preseason Loss
New Orleans Saints tight end Lucas Krull dominated in Sunday's preseason finale, grabbing seven of 15 targets for 106 yards. The second-year tight end spent 2022 on the practice squad and despite the strong showing, he more than likely will end up back there in 2023. New Orleans has a deep tight end roster including Juwan Johnson, Foster Moreau, Jimmy Graham, and Taysom Hill. Krull is unlikely to crack the roster ahead of any of those guys, but could find himself on the Saints' practice squad for another season following his dominant preseason showing.
New Orleans Saints tight end Lucas Krull has reportedly been impressive during recent OTAs. He signed with the Saints in late April after going undrafted. Krull hauled in 38 receptions, 451 receiving yards, and six touchdowns last season at Pittsburgh. There is no clear cut No. 1 tight end on this roster, so Krull could sneak up the depth chart. Adam Trautman is projected as the starting tight end, but things could quickly change. Krull might be someone worth stashing in deep leagues or dynasty formats.
