Saints still lead NFL in penalty yards thru 4 weeks (398), overwhelmingly on defense (328). Offense has 12th fewest penalty yards (70).
Could change after MNF (teams in blue have played just 3 games), but unlikely to fall out of No. 1 (or No. 32, depending on your perspective) pic.twitter.com/8sKg2rkHe6

With the majority of NFL teams having played four games to start the 2020 season, and the New Orleans Saints are still an outlier when it comes to penalties. While they were fouled just four times for 67 yards in their win over the Detroit Lions, the Saints still lead the league in total penalty yardage (398), averaging nearly 100 yards per game.
