New Orleans Saints Decide to Release Quarterback Following Week 7 Loss to the Bears — A Warning to Players with Unprofessional Attitudes
The New Orleans Saints have made headlines across the league after announcing the shocking release of quarterback Spencer Rattler following the team’s disappointing Week 7 loss to the Chicago Bears.
According to multiple team sources, the decision stemmed from Rattler’s lack of discipline and growing tension in the locker room, which reached a breaking point after Sunday’s defeat.
Head coach Kellen Moore didn’t mince words when asked about the move.
“This organization values accountability,” Moore stated firmly. “You can have all the arm talent in the world, but if you’re not putting in the work or respecting your teammates, it means nothing. The Saints are built on unity and commitment — not ego.”
Eyewitnesses from inside the Superdome reported visible frustration between Rattler and members of the offensive staff during the Bears game, with heated words exchanged on the sideline. Sources confirmed the altercation “played a major role” in the team’s decision.
Team owner Gail Benson also spoke out, backing Moore’s call and reinforcing the team’s standard of professionalism.
“The Saints stand for integrity and respect — both on and off the field,” Benson said. “No individual is above the team, and we will always protect the culture and values that define this franchise.”
The Saints, now re-evaluating their quarterback depth, are expected to consider Jake Haener and Hendon Hooker as possible replacements moving forward.
“We’re not here to make headlines; we’re here to build a winning culture,” Moore added. “Every decision we make is about moving this team forward — and sometimes that means making hard choices.”
While Rattler’s release shocked fans, insiders say it’s a clear message from New Orleans: talent can earn you a job, but attitude can lose it overnight.
