The countdown is on for the New Orleans Saints as they prepare for their 2025 regular season opener against the Arizona Cardinals, just 93 days away. Defensive lineman Nathan Shepherd will don the number 93, joining a historic list of players who have worn the number for the Saints. Notable past players include Wayne Martin, a franchise legend with impressive stats, and Darren Howard, who had a significant impact during his tenure. Shepherd, now in his third year with the Saints, aims to build on his solid stats from previous seasons as he fits into Brandon Staley's defensive strategy.
