  • Scores on fumble return in Week 5

    Howden notched four tackles (three solo) and recovered a fumble that he returned for a touchdown in a 26-14 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Analysis: Howden's touchdown was a game-changer. It came on the first play of the fourth quarter when Cam Skattebo fumbled with New York having driven to the Saints' 12-yard line. The Giants looked like they could be on the verge of the go-ahead score until the fumble, but Howden's TD instead gave New Orleans a 26-14 lead that would hold for the remainder of the contest. It was the first fumble recovery and the first touchdown of any sort in Howden's NFL career.

  • Past oblique injury

    Howden (oblique) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, John Hendrix of AthlonSports.com reports.

    Analysis: Howden was not cleared to play in the Saints' Week 1 loss to the Cardinals due to an oblique injury. The additional rest has paid off, as the 2023 fifth-rounder practiced without limitations Wednesday and is on track to play against the 49ers on Sunday. Howden is coming off a 2024 campaign in which he logged 50 tackles (27 solo) and two interceptions in 17 regular-season games.

  • Unable to play Week 1

    Howden (oblique) is inactive for Sunday's tilt versus Arizona.

    Analysis: Howden battled an oblique injury throughout the week, though he was able to participate in practice in a limited fashion. Nonetheless, he isn't well enough to take the field for New Orleans' regular-season opener. With Howden out Week 1, rookie Jonas Sanker will be the primary safety depth behind Justin Reid and Julian Blackmon.

  • Questionable for season opener

    Howden (oblique) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Ross Jackson of LousianaSports.net reports.

    Analysis: Howden has been limited in practice by an oblique injury leading up to New Orleans' Week 1 game against the Cardinals. If healthy enough to suit up, Howden will likely work in a rotational role at safety Sunday.

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Howden (oblique) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Howden is working through an oblique injury that has limited him in each of the Saints' first two practices of the week. He would likely avoid an injury tag for Sunday's regular-season opener against Arizona if he were to log a full practice Friday. Howden is expected to serve in a prominent rotational role at safety alongside Justin Reid and Julian Blackmon.

  • Limited in practice

    Howden (oblique) was a limited participant in New Orleans' practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Howden popped up on the injury report, leaving his status for Sunday's season opener versus the Cardinals up in the air. Once healthy, the 25-year-old is expected to serve as the team's backup strong safety behind Justin Reid and he likely will contribute on special teams as well.

  • Steps forward in second season

    In 17 games in 2024, Howden recorded 50 tackles (27 solo) and two interceptions.

    Analysis: Howden played almost the same number of defensive snaps in 2024 (526) as he did in his rookie season in 2023 (540), but this year he had more tackles and two picks to show for it. He was still firmly behind Tyrann Mathieu and Will Harris in the pecking order for playing time, but with the latter in line to become an unrestricted free agent during the offseason, Howden might end up competing for more reps in 2025.

  • Returns against Atlanta

  • Leaves game with shoulder injury

    Howden (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Analysis: Howden has gone to the locker room after being helped off the field and checked on by trainers on the sidelines. J.T. Gray and Millard Bradford will be the depth safeties for the Saints if Howden is unable to return.

  • Leading tackler for NOLA

    Howden registered eight tackles (four solo) during Thursday's 33-10 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Howden got his second straight start at strong safety while Will Harris (hamstring) remains on IR. Howden has played every single snap over those two starts and has accumulated 19 tackles (seven solo). The Saints will get additional rest ahead of their next game against the Chargers on Sunday, Oct. 27.

  • Racks up 11 stops in start

    Howden recorded 11 tackles (three solo) in Sunday's Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Howden moved into a starting role with Will Harris (hamstring) placed on IR on Saturday. Howden played every snap against Tampa Bay and finished with a career-high tackle total. The 24-year-old will likely continue to see extended opportunity, at least in the short term, with Harris out at least three more weeks.

  • First interception of career Sunday

    Howden registered three tackles (one solo) and one interception in Sunday's 47-10 win over Carolina.

    Analysis: Howden picked off quarterback Bryce Young on the fourth play of the third quarter on a pass intended for Adam Thielen. It was the first interception of Howden's career, and that turnover led to an Alvin Kamara one-yard touchdown run nine plays later. Howden played 44 of the Saints' 59 defensive snaps, as New Orleans rested most of its starters in the second half with a comfortable lead. Howden and the Saints' secondary have a much tougher challenge coming up as they travel to Dallas to face Dak…read more
