24-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
New Orleans Saints
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Tipton joined the Saints in 2024 as an undrafted free agent out of Yale, starting his rookie season strong with 14 catches on 22 targets over the first eight games. He then fell out of favor and was a healthy scratch in all but one of the final seven games. Instead, Kevin Austin and Dante Pettis carved out larger roles in a New Orleans receiving corps that was leveled by injuries over the back half of the year. Tipton will compete with Austin, Pettis and Cedrick Wilson for a depth spot this year. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Signed a three-year, $2.84 million contract with the Saints in May of 2024.
Picks up 100 yards Sunday
WRNew Orleans Saints
August 17, 2025
Tipton caught six of eight targets for 100 yards during Sunday's 17-17 preseason tie against Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Tipton led the Saints in receiving yards during his second straight standout performance during preseason play. The second-year undrafted wideout hauled in a 45-yard deep pass from Spencer Rattler just one week after collecting a similar 54-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Shough in the preseason opener against the Chargers. Tipton is competing to make the final 53-man roster for the second year in a row, so his continued ability to show up in the deep passing game should go a long way in securing him a spot, if not a larger role, heading into this regular season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be top receiver Sunday
WRNew Orleans Saints
November 6, 2024
Tipton could serve as the Saints' de facto No. 1 receiver in Sunday's game against the Falcons with Chris Olave likely to sit out due to a concussion, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Olave is slated to see specialists after sustaining what was his second concussion of the season and fourth overall of his career during a Week 9 loss to the Panthers. While Olave is technically considered day-to-day, he appears likely to sit out at least one game, which will thrust Tipton into a more prominent role versus Atlanta. An undrafted rookie from Yale, Tipton has posted 14 receptions for 99 yards on 25 targets over his first nine NFL games, but he didn't bring in any of the three targets he logged across 57 snaps while Olave was sidelined for the majority of the Week 9 contest.
