The New Orleans Saints have a new head coach, a new quarterback and now a new alternate helmet.
The Saints unveiled the white helmet Wednesday and announced that they will pair it with their all-white, throwback-inspired “Color Rush” uniforms.
The white shell is adorned with tiny black flakes, and the heart of the tricolor stripe down the middle seems to be the old gold that matches the one used in the Saints’ “Color Rush” jerseys. The helmet stripe, outlined in black, as well as in a thinner set of white lines, also features faint, mini fleur-de-lis.

The primary fleur-de-lis logo is gold — as opposed to its usual black color — with the thick, Sharpie-like black outline we’re accustomed to seeing. The front bumper reads “SAINTS,” whereas the back says “NEW ORLEANS” in a larger font.
And, notably, the face mask is gold, too.
The helmet is widely being received as a major upgrade to the black alternate the Saints introduced to their wardrobe in 2022. That one had a tapered stripe of distinct, gold mini fleur-de-lis. The stripe itself was much wider in the front than this year’s alternate. It also had a black cage to match the black shell.

A white helmet is a first for the Saints, and so is a gold mask. The team has yet to announce which games it will wear the alternate helmet in 2025.
New Orleans is embarking on a new chapter under head coach Kellen Moore, who won the Super Bowl this past season as the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive coordinator. The Saints drafted 25-year-old quarterback Tyler Shough in the second round of this year’s draft, and there’s a good chance he’s New Orleans’ Week 1 starter now that Derek Carr is retired.
Together, they signify the next era of Saints football. The white alternate helmet will be part of the fold as well.

Yankees’ Brian Cashman vouches for Anthony Volpe. But a closer look shows reason for concern
NEW YORK — Two years ago, Brian Cashman passionately defended the New York Yankees’ player development arm during an hourlong back-and-forth with the media at the 2023 GM Meetings in Scottsdale, Ariz. At the heart of his defense was shortstop Anthony Volpe, who won a Gold Glove Award in his rookie season but finished in the bottom 10 of the league offensively.AdvertisementCashman was adamant that Volpe would “crush it offensively” the following season and that his struggles at the plate in 2023 were related to not getting much experience at Triple A, even though the Yankees viewed him as the best option for the major-league shortstop job out of spring training.In 2024, the year Cashman expected a breakout offensively, Volpe posted a worse OPS (.657) than his rookie season (.666). Now in his third season, Volpe once again has an […]
Tigers’ Zach McKinstry is an unlikely, but also well-deserved, All-Star
DETROIT — Nope, he didn’t think this would happen. Not three years ago, when he was buried on the bench with the Dodgers, not back when he was getting cut from the Cubs, not last year when he was clinging to his Tigers roster spot for dear life.Zach McKinstry has always been self-aware. Aware of the fact he was a 33rd-round draft pick out of Central Michigan, which before now had only produced one other MLB All-Star (outfielder Tom Tresh, who represented the Yankees in 1962 and 1963).AdvertisementHe’s aware of the fact he’s now 30, a scrappy super-utility player, the type of guy who can make a roster function but rarely gets the acclaim.But look at the numbers on the scoreboard, and it is difficult to dismiss Zach McKinstry’s case for an All-Star nod. He is hitting .286 with an […]
MLB Draft 2025: Names to know beyond the top 100 prospects
There will be more than 600 players selected in the 2025 MLB Draft. We have ranked the top 100 prospects, but there are many more players who could make an impact at the next level whose names will also be called during the draft. Below are scouting notes on players who aren’t on the top-100 list but could be drafted.(Note: Prospects listed in alphabetical order; this isn’t a ranking. Scouting grades are on a traditional 20-80 scale.)Chris Arroyo, 1B, VirginiaH: 6-2 | W: 225 | B/T: L/L | DOB: 9/17/2004Arroyo started out at Florida in 2023 as a reliever, then went to a JUCO for a year, landing at Virginia this spring and becoming their everyday first baseman while throwing 12 innings out of the bullpen. He hit .291/.361/.519, but there’s probably more power in there than the line indicates; his […]

Cooper Flagg is playing!OK, now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I’m here to inform you that many other notable players who are not Flagg will take the floor at Las Vegas Summer League, including several who aren’t rookies at all.I know this is a shock to the system, because summer league is usually about rookies.
