2024 Fantasy Outlook
Mathieu totaled 166 tackles while playing nearly every defensive snap during his first two campaigns in New Orleans, resulting in a new two-year, $13 million deal this offseason. While his numbers dipped somewhat last season, the 32-year-old should continue to headline the Saints' secondary. Second-year pro Jordan Howden likely will start at strong safety, and the team's next most-experienced safety is Will Harris, who primarily played on special teams for the Lions last year. Expect Mathieu again to take on a heavy workload in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Past shoulder issue
Mathieu (forearm) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Mathieu appeared to sustain a shoulder injury in the third quarter of the Saints' Week 13 win over the Rams. However, Wednesday's injury report clarified that the issue is with his forearm. With Mathieu's full participation Wednesday, it appears he's already moved past the injury. The veteran safety is expected to remain a key leader on New Orleans' defense in Sunday's matchup against the Giants.

Mathieu set a new career high in tackles (91) while playing all 17 games during his first season with New Orleans in 2022. It's possible his production was boosted by playing in a Saints secondary that was banged up all season, including starting free safety Marcus Maye and top cornerback Marshon Lattimore, who missed seven and 10 games, respectively. Nevertheless, Mathieu is a central piece in New Orleans' defense, and he has not missed more than one game in a season since 2016. The three-time All-Pro should remain productive heading into his age-31 season in 2023.
