You may have already seen Isaiah Foskey and his family celebrating the news that he was being picked by the New Orleans Saints in the 2023 NFL draft — now check out the other side of that conversation when college scouting director Jeff Ireland and head coach Dennis Allen called him up from the Saints war room.
“Yeah man, hey, listen, you made our day too,” Allen grinned. “It’s a great pick for us, a great situation for you. You get to come in here, get a chance to play for a really good defense. Get a chance to get after the quarterback and stop this run a little bit.”
Allen stressed to Foskey that he should “enjoy this moment” while he had him on the phone; from the sound of it, Foskey is ready to go ahead and fly into town so he can get to work. He’ll be a big part of the Saints’ plans up front after Marcus Davenport left in free agency.
