Taysom Hill, Foster Moreau start Saints training camp on the PUP list
When the New Orleans Saints kick off their first training camp practice on Wednesday, two of their teammates will be watching from the sidelines. Tight end Foster Moreau and do-it-all chess piece Taysom Hill were each placed on the physically unable to perform list (PUP) on Tuesday, per Saints general manager Mickey Loomis. While both guys are trending in the right direction after suffering knee injuries last season, neither of them were cleared in time for the first day of practice. This was expected. Moreau hurt his knee in the last game of the season. Hill tore his ACL midway through 2024. Loomis wouldn't put any time table in place, but he said everything has been positive for Hill so far, and he expects him to play in 2025. We'll just have to wait and see when he's available. As for Moreau? He's been active all offseason, helping rookie quarterback Tyler Shough with throwing drills at Tulane's Yulman Stadium and attending minicamps and OTAs at the team practice facility as a spectator. Moore praised him as exactly the type of veteran presence they want in the locker room: "He is everything we want in our program. I think he's a great example, he can't do much of anything from a physical standpoint, (but) he's in every meeting, he's out there every day. He's leading the group. He's got a voice, and you hear it, during 7-on-7 periods, chewing and yelling at people left and right." It'll just have to be a minute before Moreau and Hill make their presence felt on the practice field, wearing helmets and shoulder pads like their teammates. It remains to be seen what kind of role Moore envisions for each of them in his offense but it's good to hear he's excited for both of them to dig into the playbook.

Jake Retzlaff, who faced seven-game suspension for honor code violation at BYU, transfers to Tulane: report
Jake Retzlaff has found a new home in college football. The former BYU quarterback verbally committed to transfer to Tulane, according to ESPN. Retzlaff was background checked by Tulane, which included their Title IX office, the report adds. He will be considered a walk-on when he hits campus, and Retzlaff will have to compete for the starting role. This move by Retzlaff, who is entering his fifth and final year of eligibility in NCAA, comes after a formal withdrawal from the school on July 11. He left the university and football program due to the team's plan to suspend him seven games for breaking the school's honor code. "After a lot of prayers, reflection and conversations with those I trust, I've made the difficult decision to officially withdraw from BYU and the BYU football program," Retzlaff posted on Instagram. "BYU has meant more to me that just football. It's been a place of growth — spiritually, mentally and physically. I'm grateful for every teammate, coach, staff member and fan who's supported me along the way." Retzlaff was involved in a lawsuit in May, where a woman accused him of rape in November 2023. Retzlaff denied that allegation, saying that it was consensual sex. Retzlaff's attorneys and the woman who accused him filed a joint motion last month in Salt Lake City's 3rd District Court to dismiss the case, per multiple reports. The joint motion comes due to "prejudice and upon the merits of the Plaintiff's complaint against the Defendant," which translates to the plaintiff not being able to refile the suit. BYU is run by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and engaging in consensual premarital sex is a violation of the school's honor code. It's a strict set of rules that instructs students to "live a chaste and virtuous life," according to the Salt Lake Tribune. While Retzlaff is not a Mormon, all students enrolled at BYU must follow the honor code. So, having one year left of eligibility as a graduate student, Retzlaff could move on to make sure he plays a full season before a potential leap into the NFL. Retzlaff joins a Tulane team coached by Jon Sumrall, whom he has history with after being recruited to Troy before choosing BYU. While the familiarity is there, ESPN reports Sumrall is not handing the reins to Retzlaff, as he will need to earn the starting role before that happens. It was a breakout season for Retzlaff in 2024, as he led BYU to an 11-2 record with 2,947 yards passing with 20 touchdowns. Sumrall's Green Wave squad went 9-5 in his debut season with the team, and they're hoping to improve with a potential new quarterback in Retzlaff under center in 2025.
