Third QB in the game Sunday
QBNew Orleans Saints
August 10, 2025
Haener completed five of his eight pass attempts for 41 yards and an interception during Sunday's 27-13 preseason loss to the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Haener took the field after second-year quarterback Spencer Rattler and rookie Tyler Shough. The 2023 fourth-round pick was intercepted on his fifth passing attempt, ending the first of two offensive series that he played in the fourth quarter. Haener, Rattler and Shough came into training camp all competing for the Saints' starting job, but the latter two have been getting the bulk of first-team reps in practice. As of today, Haener appears set to serve as the emergency quarterback for New Orleans this year. His next opportunity to climb the depth chart this preseason will come against the Jaguars on Sunday, Aug. 17.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
A fourth-round pick in 2023, Haener was suspended the first six games last season and still is awaiting his NFL debut. That could come this season. With Jameis Winston off to Cleveland, Haener is the favorite to back up fellow Fresno State alum Derek Carr in New Orleans. He’ll compete with journeyman Nathan Peterman and rookie fifth-round pick Spencer Rattler. Undersized at 6-1, 200, Haener doesn’t possess elite traits and has only adequate arm strength, but he gets the ball out quickly, showed good anticipation in college and is plenty athletic. Taysom Hill is still around as the gadget guy, but if Carr misses time, Haener likely will take the reins.
Haener was the first quarterback selected on Day 3 of the 2023 NFL Draft, as he was widely considered an instinctual, tough passer primarily limited by his stature (6-1, 200). He balanced production with efficiency at Fresno State, accumulating a 67:17 TD:INT, and he completed at least 65 percent of his passes in each of his three seasons as a starter. With Derek Carr now in town as QB1 and Taysom Hill available as a dual-threat option, Haener profiles as a developmental project who may compete with backup Jameis Winston after the latter agreed to a restructured contract in the offseason.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets first-team reps Wednesday
QBNew Orleans Saints
July 30, 2025
Haener, who's in a three-way quarterback competition with Spencer Rattler and Tyler Shough, took first-team reps Wednesday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Head coach Kellen Moore had previously stated he'd rotate his three quarterbacks through reps with the different units, and it was Haener's turn with the top offense Wednesday. The third-year pro's most noteworthy play may have been early in 11-on-11 drills, when he connected with Chris Olave down the sideline for a touchdown. While Rattler, who finished last season as the starter, and Shough are considered the frontrunners for the starting job to open the season, Haener is being evaluated as well and did put up the first 39 regular-season pass attempts of his career in 2024.
