Holtz reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Holtz was brought up to the Saints' active roster prior to Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Texans, failing to notch any stats during his nine total snaps, one of which was with the offense. The tight end will now head back to the practice unit and wait for his next chance to join New Orleans for a game.

Holtz signed with the Saints' practice squad Wednesday.

The Saints cut Holtz on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Holtz made six appearances for the Saints last season but never saw a target across 84 offensive snaps. The Pittsburgh product has plenty of special-teams experience and figures to land at least a practice-squad deal somewhere.

The Saints signed Holtz on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Holtz had a workout with the team Monday and impressed enough to walk away with a contract. The 29-year-old played in six games with New Orleans last season and saw 86 snaps on offense but didn't record any stats. Holtz will work to make the team's initial 53-man roster, but he may have an uphill battle among a crowded tight-end room.

Holtz reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Holtz was elevated for the first time since signing with the Saints' practice squad Nov. 23. However, he was ultimately ruled inactive pregame, as top tight end Juwan Johnson (quadriceps) was deemed good to pregame. Holtz did not record a target over six games with New Orleans this season, and he has logged just one target since the 2019 campaign.

EDGE Analysis
Holtz was elevated to the active roster from the practice squad Saturday, but he'll ultimately be a healthy scratch for Week 18. The fourth-year tight end made six appearances for New Orleans this season, but he was held without a target across 84 offensive snaps.

The Saints signed Holtz to their practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Holtz had seen action in each of New Orleans' contests since Week 4 before he was waived this past Saturday. He'll now return to the organization as a member of the team's practice squad. Holtz has been a non-factor as a pass catcher throughout most of his NFL career -- he's played in 35 games over the past three campaigns but has seen only one target and hasn't recorded a catch.
