The rookies of the New Orleans Saints are working their way around the Louisiana lifestyle. They've been on boat trips together. Now, they are trying all sorts of local food.

Fuaga is expected to start at one of the tackle spots for the Saints offense in 2024 and beyond. He was one of the best OL prospects in the draft class. Now, he is acclimating to the grub around New Orleans. Fans will appreciate that.
Kicker Charlie Smyth tried crawfish for the first time as well. As a native of Ireland, it was a fresh experience as he learned how to navigate the eating process. Looked like he had fun, too.

Rookie WR Bub Means enjoyed himself at the table, too. He may get the crown as the rookie that enjoyed the crawfish the most.
