Overview
- Kickoff is 1 p.m. ET at Caesars Superdome on CBS with streaming on Paramount+.
- Rookie Tyler Shough starts for New Orleans, and undrafted rookie Brady Cook makes his second start for New York.
- Key absences shape the plans: the Saints ruled out Alvin Kamara, placed Devin Neal on IR, and will not have Devaughn Vele; the Jets are without Garrett Wilson.
- The Jets made a staff change after last week’s loss, firing defensive coordinator Steve Wilks and naming Chris Harris the interim for the final three games.
- Sportsbooks favor New Orleans by roughly 4.5–6.5 points with a total near 40.5, and projections across outlets lean toward a Saints victory.
