Spencer Rattler has seized the Saints’ quarterback spotlight after Derek Carr’s retirement, delivering efficient outings with no turnovers in three straight starts and steady leadership as New Orleans contends with a shaky supporting cast. The Saints hint at a potential franchise option, while questions linger about play-calling and offensive help.

What stands out for fantasy owners is Rattler’s accuracy (68.5% completion) and understated rushing floor (143 yards on 26 carries), suggesting sustained value even in tough matchups. If he keeps producing, New Orleans could avoid an early 2026 QB splash, changing dynasty timelines for the franchise and its skill-position pieces.
