Get and agree with you that we need other WRs to step up or find new ones...

But we don't need to geaux Ole'School Saints' approach of signing all the Snake Stablers and Earl Campbells twilight-of-their-career players either...

If we needed 'em for a three game playoff, yeah; but we've got to push, develop what we got and draft better...

NFL NETWORK PLAYER BIO :p

Will be a matchup Tight End or Big Slot in the NFL
3rd Best Receiver in Texas Football History!

Humphrey's older brother wanted his new sibling to be named for basketball star Michael Jordan but that first name was too simple for his mother, who went off-script for Lil'Jordan. Despite his size, he was a running back at famed Southlake Carroll High School in Texas. He was a two-time all-state pick and Offensive Player of the Year in District 7-6A as a senior (184-1,292-7.2, 14 TD rushing; 57-876-15.4, 8 TD receiving). Texas coaches saw his 6-4 frame and moved him to receiver immediately; he played in 10 games as a reserve and on special teams (2-15-7.5 receiving). Humphrey was an honorable mention All-Big 12 selection as a sophomore, starting 6 of 12 games played (37-431-11.6, one TD receiving; 6-41-6.8, one TD rushing). League coaches voted him honorable mention all-conference in 2018, as he started 12 of 14 games and led the Longhorns with 86 receptions, 1,176 receiving yards (13.7 average) and nine touchdown receptions.

I'll stick to Southlake :cool:. This young man is way too big and tall to be called "Lil" anything.

You noticed I took off the "Lil" too. :cool:

Re: Saints Promote WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey to Active Roster

I like the Lil'Jordan moniker. It's original, unlike the other bajillion parents who named their kid Jordan after His Airness (no offense if you named your kid Jordan)

That's more than we got out of Jairus Byrd ;)

Re: Saints Promote WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey to Active Roster

Bump ...

Saw Southlake (Jordan H) in on a couple of plays vs Seattle.

Hopefully he is at least targeted once/twice this weekend. I'm pretty certain Dallas is game planning for Kamara/MT ... like last year.
