2024 Fantasy Outlook
A fourth-round pick in 2023, Haener was suspended the first six games last season and still is awaiting his NFL debut. That could come this season. With Jameis Winston off to Cleveland, Haener is the favorite to back up fellow Fresno State alum Derek Carr in New Orleans. He’ll compete with journeyman Nathan Peterman and rookie fifth-round pick Spencer Rattler. Undersized at 6-1, 200, Haener doesn’t possess elite traits and has only adequate arm strength, but he gets the ball out quickly, showed good anticipation in college and is plenty athletic. Taysom Hill is still around as the gadget guy, but if Carr misses time, Haener likely will take the reins. Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
Heaner and Spencer Rattler are both listed as the backup to Derek Carr on the team's depth chart. They will likely spend the remainder of the week leading up to Sunday's game versus Carolina battling it out in practice for the backup spot.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Haener was the first quarterback selected on Day 3 of the 2023 NFL Draft, as he was widely considered an instinctual, tough passer primarily limited by his stature (6-1, 200). He balanced production with efficiency at Fresno State, accumulating a 67:17 TD:INT, and he completed at least 65 percent of his passes in each of his three seasons as a starter. With Derek Carr now in town as QB1 and Taysom Hill available as a dual-threat option, Haener profiles as a developmental project who may compete with backup Jameis Winston after the latter agreed to a restructured contract in the offseason.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Inside track on backup role
Despite New Orleans selecting Spencer Rattler in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, Haener has taken the majority of snaps on the second-string offense during OTAs and minicamp and appears to be the backup to Derek Carr heading into training camp, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Haener was firmly entrenched as the Saints' emergency quarterback in 2023, with Carr as the starter and Jameis Winston as the backup, while Taysom Hill also saw the occasional snap under center. With Winston signing with Cleveland in the offseason, Haener and Rattler are battling for the backup quarterback role in New Orleans, and the former seems to have a firm grasp after a strong showing in OTAs and minicamp. Haener credited his comfort during offseason practices to the retooled playbook under offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, with the second-year quarterback noting during minicamp in June that the new system has helped him "see things a little clearer."
