Logs three catches again
Tipton reeled in three of four targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Tipton recorded exactly three catches on four targets for the second week in a row. The 2024 undrafted wideout has moved into the WR3 position following the departure of Rashid Shaheed and Brandin Cooks over the last couple of weeks. Tipton still finished fourth in targets behind Devaughn Vele (eight), Chris Olave (seven) and tight end Juwan Johnson (nine). Running back Devin Neal also tallied three targets. Tipton's usage should remain modest while operating at the No. 4 pass-catcher for the…read more

Logs three catches Week 12
Tipton recorded three receptions (on four targets) for 22 yards during Sunday's 24-10 loss versus the Falcons.
Analysis: Tipton logged season highs across the board, recording twice as many targets as he did over his nine appearances. The Saints sent away No. 2 wideout Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline before waiving veteran Brandin Cooks on Saturday. This moved Tipton to the WR3 spot behind Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele, as these two logged 13 and seven targets, respectively. The Saints' struggling passing offense probably cannot support consistent production for a No. 3 wideout, so Tipton's fantasy value…read more

Doesn't see the field Week 2
Tipton suited up but did not play during Sunday's 26-21 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The 2024 undrafted wideout served as New Orleans' fifth wideout once again, while 2023 sixth-round pick Trey Palmer was a healthy scratch for the second week in a row. Tipton also played zero offensive snaps in the regular-season opener, when he only saw the field for two snaps on special teams. The Saints traded for 2024 second-round pick Ja'Lynn Polk from the Patriots on Saturday, though he won't play for the team this season after undergoing shoulder surgery in August. Tipton likely won't…read more

Grabs one pass in preseason finale
Tipton hauled in one of two targets for four yards during Saturday's 28-19 preseason loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Tipton's preseason campaign went out on a quiet note after he stood out with 154 receiving yards, including two long touchdown catches, across the first two exhibitions. The 2024 undrafted rookie looked like he might push for the No. 4 wide-receiver spot behind starters Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and Brandin Cooks, but his odds took a big hit when the Saints traded for wideout Devaughn Vele from Denver on Wednesday. Tipton will now hope that his early preseason performances earned him a spot…read more

Picks up 100 yards Sunday
Tipton caught six of eight targets for 100 yards during Sunday's 17-17 preseason tie against Jacksonville.
Analysis: Tipton led the Saints in receiving yards during his second straight standout performance during preseason play. The second-year undrafted wideout hauled in a 45-yard deep pass from Spencer Rattler just one week after collecting a similar 54-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Shough in the preseason opener against the Chargers. Tipton is competing to make the final 53-man roster for the second year in a row, so his continued ability to show up in the deep passing game should go a long way in…read more

Scores 54-yard touchdown Sunday
Tipton logged one reception (three targets) for 54 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 27-13 preseason loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Tipton was on the receiving end of New Orleans' biggest highlight play Sunday, breaking wide open deep before catching a pass in stride from quarterback Tyler Shough for a 54-yard touchdown in the third quarter. This was the second-year wideout's first target of the game, and he finished in a four-way tie for the fourth-most targets on the team Sunday. Tipton was one of the standout players from last year's preseason for the Saints, and he appeared in 11 regular-season games during his rookie…read more

Fades in depleted WR corps
Tipton tallied 14 receptions (on 26 targets) for 99 yards across 11 regular-season appearances for the Saints in 2024.
Analysis: Tipton saw action right away as a rookie and seemed to be growing into a larger role by the midway point of the year. The undrafted wideout peaked when he caught six of nine targets while playing 82 percent of snaps Week 7. But, his production quickly faded with only two catches over the next three games, and he was ruled a healthy scratch for six of the final seven contests. This was somewhat surprising, as top wideouts Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee) were sidelined for the…read more

Not playing Week 17
Tipton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Raiders.
Analysis: Tipton hasn't been productive of late, as he hasn't recorded a catch in any of the last three games in which he's played despite logging 112 offensive snaps over that stretch. His status as a healthy scratch Sunday comes with Marquez Valdes-Scantling (chest) returning from a one-game absence. Tipton's final chance to play this season will come Week 18 versus Tampa Bay.

Inactive for Week 14
Tipton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Tipton was active for the Saints' first 10 games of the regular season, but the 24-year-old wide receiver will be a healthy scratch for a third straight game. His next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against Washington on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Healthy scratch Sunday
Tipton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.
Analysis: Despite the Saints having three wide receivers on injured reserve and five on the active roster, Tipton will remain in street clothes Sunday while Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Cedrick Wilson, Kevin Austin and Dante Pettis will man the position. Tipton's next chance for game action will come after a Week 12 bye on Sunday, Dec. 1 versus the Rams.

Held catchless Week 9
Tipton failed to bring in any of his three targets during Sunday's 23-22 loss against Carolina.
Analysis: Tipton played over 75.0 percent of offensive snaps for the third game in a row, and he was the only Saints wideout to play over 50.0 percent of these snaps. However, he still logged a paltry three targets despite an early exit for Saints' No. 1 wideout Chris Olave, who sustained a concussion in the first quarter. Instead, running back Alvin Kamara and do-it-all tight end Taysom Hill were the top two in targets with nine and five, respectively. Tipton tallied a season-high nine targets when…read more

Stays busy in Week 7 loss
Tipton secured six of nine targets for 45 yards and returned one kickoff for 21 yards in the Saints' 33-10 loss to the Broncos on Thursday night.
Analysis: The undrafted rookie from Yale unsurprisingly saw a significantly extended role with Chris Olave (concussion), Rashid Shaheed (knee) and Taysom Hill (ribs) all out for New Orleans. Tipton came into the night with a 6-40 line on 11 targets over his first five games, so his numbers Thursday essentially matched what he'd accomplished as a pro to date. The solid performance could be a sign of what's to come for Tipton the rest of the season, as Shaheed has been ruled out for the remainder of the…read more

Logs four targets Week 5
Tipton reeled in one of four targets for two yards during Monday's 26-13 loss against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Tipton logged a season-high in targets while serving as the Saints' WR3. The 5-foot-11 undrafted rookie didn't connect with Derek Carr (oblique) on two deep targets in the second and fourth quarter, but he once again played more offensive snaps (19) than veteran wideout Cedrick Wilson (12). However, Carr is expected to miss multiple games with a left oblique injury sustained during Monday's loss, and his absence would cast a shadow on the Saints' passing game moving forward. In the meantime,…read more

Sees slight uptick in playing time
Tipton reeled in his only target for six yards during Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Falcons.
Analysis: Tipton played a season-high 39 percent of offensive snaps Week 4. But, this didn't translate to more targets, as the undrafted rookie out of Yale has now totaled five targets while appearing in each of the first four games this season. He's still seen consistent playing time behind top three wideouts Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and Cedrick Wilson so far, so Tipton's role could increase if any of these starters miss time with injury at some point in the future. The Saints will have an extra day…read more

Draws three targets versus Philly
Tipton gathered in two of three argets for 11 yards during Sunday's 15-12 loss versus the Eagles.
Analysis: Tipton tied with running back Alvin Kamara for the Saints' third-most targets Sunday. The undrafted wideout out of Yale logged targets on both the first and final offensive series of the game for the Saints. However, he did't see significantly more playing time than he did in the first two games of the season, as Tipton still logged fewer offensive snaps (18) than fellow wideouts Chris Olave (45), Rashid Shaheed (42) and Cedrick Wilson (25). Tipton's target share isn't significant enough to…read more

Zero targets Week 2
Tipton logged zero targets during Sunday's 44-19 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Tipton played exactly 15 offensive snaps for the second game in a row. He still saw the third-most playing time of any New Orleans wideout behind Chris Olave (42) and Rashid Shaheed (39). However, there weren't many opportunities to go around in the receiving game, as the Saints logged 39 rushing attempts across 56 total offensive plays. Tipton could see an immediate uptick in production if either Olave or Shaheed miss time moving forward, though he doesn't have much, if any, fantasy value…read more

Grabs one pass Week 1
Tipton gathered in his only target for six yards during Sunday's 47-10 victory over Carolina.
Analysis: Tipton saw fairly significant playing time with 17 offensive snaps Sunday. The undrafted wideout from Yale appeared to fill the role left by A.T. Perry, who was inactive with a hand injury. As a result, the rookie caught his first career target on a short pass from starting quarterback Derek Carr midway through the second quarter. Tipton also saw more playing time than 2024 sixth-rounder Bub Means (six snaps), which is a solid sign for the former's current spot in this wide-receiver hierarchy.…read more

Ready for Week 1
Tipton (hamstring) is not on the Saints' injury report Wednesday.
Analysis: Tipton has moved past a hamstring injury that kept him out of the team's final preseason game. When he takes the field Sunday against the Panthers, assuming he isn't inactive, he will be making his NFL debut after securing a spot on the 53-man roster as an undrafted free agent out of Yale. Currently listed at the bottom of the team's depth chart at wide receiver, it's unlikely he sees many opportunities, but he clearly impressed New Orleans' staff in camp and possesses a 4.33-second 40-yard…read more

Not playing Sunday
Tipton (hamstring) will not suit up for the Saints' preseason finale against the Titans on Sunday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Tipton broke out early in training camp with his blazing speed, but a hamstring injury has prevented him from playing in all three preseason games for New Orleans. That will factor in Tipton's chances of making the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, though the Saints will likely try and keep the undrafted rookie around on the practice squad.

Returns to practice
Tipton (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday as a limited participant, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Tipton was making waves early in training camp, with his 4.33-second 40-yard dash time fully on display as both a wide receiver and return specialist. Unfortunately, he has missed both of New Orleans' preseason games due to a hamstring injury he sustained in early August. A lingering injury would normally keep a player out of preseason action, but with Tipton competing for a final spot on the Saints' 53-man roster, he could suit up for Sunday's exhibition finale against Tennessee.

Injured during practice
Tipton left practice early Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, according to head coach Dennis Allen, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: The injury is a tough blow for Tipton, who was receiving rave reviews early in training camp. The Yale product went undrafted in 2024 but has posted a 4.33-second 40-yard dash time, which he's put on display in practices, proving to be a potential downfield threat. It's not yet clear how long the 23-year-old could be sidelined with the injury.

Making waves in camp
Tipton has drawn positive reviews from the New Orleans coaching staff for his performance during the team's early training camp practices, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports. "I think he's got the skill set," head coach Dennis Allen said of Tipton. "He's a smaller player, but he's got some real good quickness and he's a savvy route runner. He's got some football awareness, and so I think he understands kind of how to play the position."
Analysis: An undrafted rookie out of Yale, Tipton has put his 4.33-second 40-yard dash speed on frequent display in camp, with DeShazier noting that the receiver turned in one of the highlights of practice Monday with a long touchdown catch down the sideline. Though Tipton already looks like a downfield threat, the 5-foot-11, 187-pound wideout will still need to show that his quickness can translate to underneath routes if he wants to separate himself from the rest of his competition for a roster spot.…read more
