The Saints signed Prentice to their active roster from the team's practice squad Friday, per the team's official site.
What it means:
Prentice officially joined New Orleans' active roster Friday, after he had already been promoted a maximum of three times earlier this season. The 25-year-old is now slated to command the team's fullback duties for the remainder of the 2022 campaign starting Sunday against the Steelers.
New Orleans signed Prentice to its practice squad Tuesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
What it means:
Prentice was waived Saturday ahead of the Saints' Week 4 loss against Minnesota, but he's already back with the practice squad just a few days later. The second-year fullback has played just 18 offensive snaps in three appearances this season.
Prentice was waived Saturday by the Saints, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
What it means:
Prentice was active for each of the Saints' first three games, and he recorded one catch on one target for two yards. He gained his playing time primarily on special teams and tallied one tackle.
Prentice (shoulder) was a full participant at practice Friday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
What it means:
Prentice was limited Wednesday and Thursday, but he appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game at Carolina. In two games this season, the 25-year-old fullback has logged 16 offensive snaps, one target, and no carries.
Prentice was signed to the Saints' active roster ahead of their Thursday night matchup with the Cowboys, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
What it means:
The fullback was active for the team's Week 12 matchup with the Bills and will once again be available in Week 13. With Mark Ingram returning to the backfield this week, it's unlikely Prentice will have any offensive opportunities.
Prentice reverted to the Saints' practice squad Friday.
What it means:
Prentice was promoted ahead of the Saints' loss to the Bills and made his NFL debut in the affair. The 24-year-old played 15 of 57 offensive snaps with 16 more coming on special teams. He caught his only target for a 10-yard gain. If Alvin Kamara and Melvin Ingram both need to miss more time with their knee issues, the South Carolina product could once again get the call Week 13 against the Cowboys.
