The New Orleans Saints have had a lot of motion on the defensive side of the ball in recent years, especially in the secondary. With Marcus Williams, Eli Apple, and Vonn Bell all being replaced in recent years by Tyrann Mathieu, Alontae Taylor/Paulson Adebo, and Marcus Maye, the turnover has been immense. But now, we may see another transition taking place right before our very eyes, as Jordan Howden has been quickly emerging as a crucial player in this Saints defense. Starting three games so far this season, including this past week, Howden has made a substantial dent into the safety snap count for a 5th round rookie.
