The New Orleans Saints are gearing up for their 2025 season, and rookie defensive tackle Vernon Broughton is a key addition to their roster. At 6'5" and 311 pounds, Broughton comes from a strong college career at Texas, where he showcased his potential with 6.5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss in his final season. Drafted in the third round as the 71st overall pick, he's expected to bolster the Saints' interior defense. Broughton brings size and athleticism that could enhance their defensive lineup significantly.

As the Saints prepare for the upcoming season opener against the Arizona Cardinals in 91 days, Broughton is set to make an impact in a much-needed area for the team. His ability to disrupt plays and pressure opposing quarterbacks will be closely monitored by fantasy enthusiasts and sports analysts alike.
