Ted Ginn Jr.

Saints already know how Ted Ginn will fit into offense

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said he has "an exact vision" of how to use newly-signed wide receiver Ted Ginn.

What It Means:

"I seem him playing at flanker, I see him being a guy that can take the top off the coverage. I like what this guy does," Payton said. "He’s still, when he’s playing in each game, the fastest player on the field." Ginn is essentially a homeless man's version of departed wide receiver Brandin Cooks, but he's not going to be as heavily involved in the Saints' offense. Even in a more prolific offense in New Orleans, Ginn remains the same boom-or-bust fantasy proposition that he was as a member of the Carolina Panthers.

Ginn came in 47th in Reception Net Expected Points per target among the 68 wide receivers to see 75 targets or more in 2016.
