MASON TIPTON NEWS

Totals one yard Week 15 Tipton hauled in one of two targets for five yards and rushed once for a four-yard loss during Sunday's 20-17 win over the Panthers.

Impact Tipton started his fourth game in a row and played the second-most offensive snaps (55) among the Saints' wide receivers behind WR1 Chris Olave (58). Devaughn Vele, who's become the No. 2 wideout over the last five games, played 38 offensive snaps before exiting with a shoulder injury in the fourth quarter. Vele was also seen wearing a sling after the game, likely putting his availability for Week 16 up in the air. If he misses time, then Tipton should be the next man up in the pass-catcher hierarchy behind Olave and tight end Juwan Johnson. The Saints will next play versus the Jets on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Sees zero targets in win Tipton totaled zero targets during Sunday's 24-20 victory over the Buccaneers.

Impact Tipton has moved into the WR3 role since the Saints let go Brandin Cooks three weeks ago. The 25-year-old logged exactly three catches on four targets in each of the previous two games, but he did not show up on the stat sheet versus Tampa Bay other than a 54-yard return on the opening kickoff. Quarterback Tyler Shough fell well below his average number of passing attempts with just 20 in Week 14. However, Tipton's playing time also took a hit, falling to 45 percent of offensive snaps after playing 70-plus in each of the previous two contests. Tipton's limited role shouldn't warrant much, if any, attention from fantasy owners. New Orleans will next play versus the Panthers in Week 15.

Logs three catches again Tipton reeled in three of four targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Tipton recorded exactly three catches on four targets for the second week in a row. The 2024 undrafted wideout has moved into the WR3 position following the departure of Rashid Shaheed and Brandin Cooks over the last couple of weeks. Tipton still finished fourth in targets behind Devaughn Vele (eight), Chris Olave (seven) and tight end Juwan Johnson (nine). Running back Devin Neal also tallied three targets. Tipton's usage should remain modest while operating at the No. 4 pass-catcher for the Saints moving forward. The team will be back in action in Week 14, versus the Buccaneers, on Sunday, Dec. 7th.

Logs three catches Week 12 Tipton recorded three receptions (on four targets) for 22 yards during Sunday's 24-10 loss versus the Falcons.

Impact Tipton logged season highs across the board, recording twice as many targets as he did over his nine appearances. The Saints sent away No. 2 wideout Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline before waiving veteran Brandin Cooks on Saturday. This moved Tipton to the WR3 spot behind Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele, as these two logged 13 and seven targets, respectively. The Saints' struggling passing offense probably cannot support consistent production for a No. 3 wideout, so Tipton's fantasy value will still be extremely limited. The second-year wideout will likely see similar usage in New Orleans' Week 13 matchup against Miami on Sunday, Nov. 30.

Doesn't see the field Week 2 Tipton suited up but did not play during Sunday's 26-21 loss to the 49ers.

Impact The 2024 undrafted wideout served as New Orleans' fifth wideout once again, while 2023 sixth-round pick Trey Palmer was a healthy scratch for the second week in a row. Tipton also played zero offensive snaps in the regular-season opener, when he only saw the field for two snaps on special teams. The Saints traded for 2024 second-round pick Ja'Lynn Polk from the Patriots on Saturday, though he won't play for the team this season after undergoing shoulder surgery in August. Tipton likely won't have any opportunities as a pass-catcher this season unless Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, Brandin Cooks or Devaughn Vele misses time with injury.

Grabs one pass in preseason finale Tipton hauled in one of two targets for four yards during Saturday's 28-19 preseason loss to the Broncos.

Impact Tipton's preseason campaign went out on a quiet note after he stood out with 154 receiving yards, including two long touchdown catches, across the first two exhibitions. The 2024 undrafted rookie looked like he might push for the No. 4 wide-receiver spot behind starters Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and Brandin Cooks, but his odds took a big hit when the Saints traded for wideout Devaughn Vele from Denver on Wednesday. Tipton will now hope that his early preseason performances earned him a spot on the final 53-man roster, though Kevin Austin and Cedrick Wilson are candidates to finish above him.

Picks up 100 yards Sunday Tipton caught six of eight targets for 100 yards during Sunday's 17-17 preseason tie against Jacksonville.

Impact Tipton led the Saints in receiving yards during his second straight standout performance during preseason play. The second-year undrafted wideout hauled in a 45-yard deep pass from Spencer Rattler just one week after collecting a similar 54-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Shough in the preseason opener against the Chargers. Tipton is competing to make the final 53-man roster for the second year in a row, so his continued ability to show up in the deep passing game should go a long way in securing him a spot, if not a larger role, heading into this regular season.
