Two Saints Stars Poised to Be Kellen Moore’s Secret Weapons vs. Patriots
Two Saints superstars, the secret weapons trusted by head coach Kellen Moore ,are poised to be the key pieces completing New Orleans’ strength ahead of their showdown with the Patriots ⚜️
New Orleans, October 10, 2025
After a tough start to the season, the New Orleans Saints finally received some much-needed good news — Taysom Hill and Foster Moreau, both returning from serious knee injuries, are set to play in the Week 6 matchup against the New England Patriots on October 12 at Caesars Superdome.
Both players made an inspiring return in last week’s 26-14 victory over the New York Giants, bringing a surge of energy and leadership back to the Saints’ locker room. Though their snap counts were limited, Hill and Moreau proved they are key pieces in helping the team regain its full strength and balance.
“I just know I wasn’t ready to stop,” Hill said. “Getting back out there, playing with my brothers, and hearing the fans cheer — that’s what kept me going through all those long months of rehab.”
At 35, Hill continues to embody toughness and versatility. He remains one of the most dynamic players in football — capable of lining up at quarterback, tight end, or on special teams — giving head coach Kellen Moore multiple options on offense. Against the Giants, Hill converted two key third downs, including a 19-yard pass to Juwan Johnson that kept a crucial drive alive.
Meanwhile, Foster Moreau, 28, who heroically overcame Hodgkin lymphoma, has returned stronger than ever after nearly nine months of recovery. He remains a reliable blocker in the Saints’ offensive system and a steady veteran presence for the younger players.
Head coach Kellen Moore believes both Hill and Moreau will play increasingly significant roles in the coming weeks:
“They bring strength, experience, and a never-quit mentality,” Moore said. “The more time they spend practicing, the more complete this team becomes. I see them as true ‘wild cards’ — players who can change the game at any moment. With Hill and Moreau on the field, the Saints are more unpredictable than ever.”
Their return is not only a boost in personnel but also a massive emotional lift for a Saints team looking to rebound after an 0-4 start. With two veteran leaders known for their resilience and relentless drive, New Orleans now looks more complete than ever — ready to chase victory against the Patriots and reignite their season with belief and purpose.
“We’re not just coming back,” Moreau said. “We’re coming to win — and to prove that the Saints still have a lot left to say this season.”
