2024 Fantasy Outlook
A fourth-round pick in 2023, Haener was suspended the first six games last season and still is awaiting his NFL debut. That could come this season. With Jameis Winston off to Cleveland, Haener is the favorite to back up fellow Fresno State alum Derek Carr in New Orleans. He’ll compete with journeyman Nathan Peterman and rookie fifth-round pick Spencer Rattler. Undersized at 6-1, 200, Haener doesn’t possess elite traits and has only adequate arm strength, but he gets the ball out quickly, showed good anticipation in college and is plenty athletic. Taysom Hill is still around as the gadget guy, but if Carr misses time, Haener likely will take the reins. Read Past Outlooks

Overall
Named as Week 15 starter
Saints coach Darren Rizzi said Friday that Haener will start Sunday's game against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Rizzi hinted at the outcome a day earlier, choosing Haener over Spencer Rattler while Derek Carr recovers from a concussion and hand fracture. The Saints hope to get Carr back within the next few weeks, but it won't be surprising if Haener ends up making multiple starts in an injury-riddled offense that's currently without WR Chris Olave (concussion), WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) and TE Taysom Hill (knee).

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Haener was the first quarterback selected on Day 3 of the 2023 NFL Draft, as he was widely considered an instinctual, tough passer primarily limited by his stature (6-1, 200). He balanced production with efficiency at Fresno State, accumulating a 67:17 TD:INT, and he completed at least 65 percent of his passes in each of his three seasons as a starter. With Derek Carr now in town as QB1 and Taysom Hill available as a dual-threat option, Haener profiles as a developmental project who may compete with backup Jameis Winston after the latter agreed to a restructured contract in the offseason.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for first NFL start
Interim Saints coach Darren Rizzi said Friday that Haener will start against the Commanders in Week 15.
ANALYSIS
Haener will get the nod over Spencer Rattler, with whom Haener split practice reps throughout the week. Derek Carr is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game due to a hand injury and concussion. Even if Carr surprisingly suits up, he'll cede the starting role to Haener, who will make his first NFL start.
