Saints Activate Juwan Johnson Off PUP List

The New Orleans Saints have activated tight end Juwan Johnson off the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list following his recovery from foot surgery in June. Johnson’s timely return to practice is crucial for the Saints, who are under pressure to perform well this season, especially with head coach Dennis Allen on the hot seat and an aging roster. Additionally, veteran running back Alvin Kamara has also returned to training camp, dispelling rumors of a contract-related absence. The energy from the local fans during the Saints' open practice at Tulane's Yulman Stadium has been a significant boost for the team. Johnson, who had a breakout season as a tight end in 2022, is expected to play a significant role in the upcoming season. Whether he will participate in the preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans remains uncertain.
