Noah Fant

Veteran tight end Noah Fant and the New Orleans Saints have agreed on a two-year deal.

Fantasy Impact

Fant played last season with the Bengals and caught 34 passes for 288 yards and three touchdowns. He has 334 career receptions in his seven-year NFL career with the Broncos, Seahawks, and Bengals with 18 of his catches going for touchdowns. Fant gives the Saints two - sometimes three if you count uber-utility man Taysom Hill - pass catching tight ends for second-year quarterback Tyler Shough. With Johnson enjoying a breakout season last year, Fant will likely be utilized as a backup and in two tight end sets.
