One point of contention among New Orleans Saints fans to start the season has been Isaac Yiadom. Many people following the team think they should bench him for rookie Quincy Riley. Yiadom starting could cost the Saints a compensatory pick and hasn’t played well to start the year.
The Saints signed Yiadom to a three year, $9,000,000 deal. This was seen as a good move at the time. He would be a valuable depth and special teams piece, plus he played his best in 2023 with New Orleans. However, fans' opinions quickly changed when the compensatory projection came out.
