2024 Fantasy Outlook
Rattler was the third selection of the Saints in the 2024 NFL Draft, and he's likely in the cards for the team's future plans at quarterback. However, the fifth-round pick will immediately contend for the backup role behind starting signal-caller Derek Carr. With Jameis Winston gone to Cleveland, Rattler will contend with journeyman Nathan Peterman and 2021 fourth-round pick Jake Haener, the latter of whom has yet to make his NFL debut. Rattler started his collegiate career with high expectations at Oklahoma before losing his job to Caleb Williams in 2021, and he finished with a 19:8 TD:INT at South Carolina in 2023.

RANKS
Available in emergency
Rattler (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Panthers, but he'll still suit up as the team's emergency third quarterback.
ANALYSIS
Rattler was considered a co-backup with Jake Haener to Derek Carr, but it will be Haener officially handling the backup role in Week 1.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Demonstrates upside in preseason
Rattler, whom the Saints selected in the fifth round out of South Carolina in April's draft, was impressive enough in the preseason to make a run at the No. 2 quarterback job, Bucky Brooks of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brooks points out Rattler made a good impression despite the fact he posted only a 52.6 percent completion rate in the preseason, as the rookie also displayed good composure and command during his time on the field. Jake Haener appears set to begin the season as Derek Carr's primary backup, but Brooks points out Rattler has shown enough to keep the job battle a fluid one heading into the regular season.
