    60 days until Saints' season opener: Every player to wear No. 60

    Published on

    We're down to 60 days until the New Orleans Saints kick off the 2025 regular season, which means we're continuing our countdown by highlighting all of the players who have worn the No. 60 jersey in team history.

    It's a number that's been used by some fan-favorite offensive linemen over the years, including Pro Bowl center Max Unger and his predecessor Brian De La Puente. Go back further in team history and you'll find that Steve Korte wore it well, too. These days it belongs to Kyle Hergel, a second-year pro the Saints signed out of Boston College, who faces a lot of competition for the roster spot he won last season.

    Here's the full list from Pro Football Reference:
