Loser: LilβJordan Humphrey, wide receiver
Humphrey hasnβt made much noise in a crowded room of wide receivers. Itβs unfortunate, because he has one of the clearest projections of any of the new additions as a specialist who can line up in the slot and make tough catches in traffic, much like Marques Colston once made a living doing.
Itβs frustrating to see because other young wideouts like Emmanuel Butler and Cyril Grayson have shown up right away. The silver lining here is that Humphrey isnβt really doing anything wrong. Heβs not dropping passes, and heβs not running the wrong routes. Heβs simply not making βwowβ plays and doing anything memorable. He kind of looks like just another training camp body.
Thereβs still plenty of time for him to start making a difference, though. Weβre only a week into practices and Humphrey should get plenty of looks in the preseason games. All he needs is to start stringing together good performances and showing off skills that nobody else has, which he did last year for the Texas Longhorns. It feels like he could flip a switch at any time and show the Saints plenty to like.
