All eyes now on Saints punter Blake Gillikin

Now that the New Orleans Saints have released Thomas Morstead, the question now becomes, for the first time in over a decade: Who will be the Saints punter for the upcoming season?

Blake Gillikin was stashed on the injured reserve all season, so there’s not much to talk about from this year. He will be a member of the New Orleans Saints in 2021 and 2022, and now may finally come off injured reserve. This shows it wasn’t necessarily a bad idea to have a special teamer waiting while COVID is still a thing as well.
