Kevin Austin News: Back to practice squad

Published on December 15, 2025

Austin reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Austin played a season-high 38 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Panthers, catching three of five targets for 33 yards. With Devaughn Vele going down with a shoulder injury against Carolina, Austin could be in line for an elevated Week 16 role against the Jets.
