Kellen Moore says Saints starters likely to sit in preseason opener

Kellen Moore indicated that most New Orleans Saints starters will likely not participate in their preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday. Moore plans to evaluate player readiness following a joint practice with the Jaguars before finalizing the roster decisions. He stated that starters will focus on improving through practice, which reduces the risk of injury in the preseason game. The Saints will host the Jaguars at the Caesars Superdome at 3 p.m. CT, marking their only home preseason game before subsequent road contests against the Los Angeles Rams and Dallas Cowboys.
