  • Contract restructured

    Mathieu agreed Friday to restructure his contract with the Saints, clearing up $4.7 million in 2023 salary cap space, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu posted a career-high 91 tackles (64 solo) while suiting up for all 17 games with New Orleans in 2022, with eight passes defended and three interceptions. The veteran safety heads into his age-31 season with two years left on his deal with the Saints.

  • Posts career campaign in NOLA

    Mathieu recorded a career-high 91 tackles (64 solo) as well as eight passes defended, including three interceptions, while playing all 17 games in the 2022 season.

    Analysis: Mathieu provided instant returns after joining his hometown team this past offseason, finishing with the squad's second-most tackles behind linebacker Demario Davis (109) as well as the second-most passes defended behind cornerback Alontae Taylor (11). The 30-year-old safety also tallied at least three interceptions for the fourth year in a row, increasing his career total to 29. Mathieu was one of the few mainstays in New Orleans' banged-up secondary by playing all but two defensive snaps in…read more

  • Collects season-high 11 stops

    Mathieu recorded 11 tackles (six solo) in Saturday's 17-10 win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Mathieu had his best outing Saturday in terms of stops dating back to Week 4 of 2017, when he logged 12 tackles. The veteran safety amassed a game-high 11 stops versus Cleveland, which accounts for his third double-digit tackling performance of his career, as well as his new season high in that department. Mathieu will now look to keep momentum churning and operate in his usual every-down role when the Saints travel to Philadelphia in Week 17.

  • Solid outing in win

    Mathieu tallied six solo tackles and two passes defended in Sunday's 21-18 win against the Falcons.

    Analysis: Mathieu tied strong safety Marcus Maye for the Saints' second-most passes defended Week 15, as Atlanta signal-caller Desmond Ridder went 13-for-26 passing for 97 yards during his starting debut. The 30-year-old free safety now ranks second on the team in passes defended this season (seven) behind cornerback Alontae Taylor (10), who also paced the team in this category with three Sunday. Mathieu has also recorded 70 tackles while playing just about every defensive snap through 14 games this…read more

  • Seven tackles in loss

    Mathieu recorded seven tackles (five solo) during the Saints' 20-10 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Mathieu has yet to take a play off this season, playing all 79 of the Saints' defensive snaps Sunday. He was able to match his season high with seven tackles, the third time he's reached that number in 2022. The safety is now up to 50 tackles this season while also recording three pass deflections, two interceptions and a fumble recovery over the first 10 contests.

    Mathieu (illness) will play Sunday against the Falcons, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu missed practice Friday due to the illness, but he's recovered enough to take the field Sunday. The star safety's presence should be a boost to the Saints' defense, as he makes his debut with his hometown squad.

  • Questionable with illness

    Mathieu (illness) is questionable for Sunday's season opener against the Falcons, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu popped up on the injury report Friday after not practicing due to an illness. The star safety will have two days to shake the aliment before attempting to make his Saints debut Sunday.

  • Getting $18M guaranteed in deal

    Mathieu agreed Monday on a three-year, $33 million contract with the Saints that includes $18 million fully guaranteed, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu and the Saints still are ironing out some details on the contract before it's finalized, but the 29-year-old is committed to continuing his career in his hometown of New Orleans. The three-time Pro Bowler joins the team after a three-year stay in Kansas City that he concluded with a 76-tackle, three-interception effort over 16 games in 2021.

  • Finalizing deal with Saints

    Mathieu and the Saints agreed to terms on a deal Monday that is expected to be finalized in the coming days, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Given his status as a former LSU standout and New Orleans native, Mathieu-to-the-Saints buzz has been percolating for several weeks, but it wasn't until after the 2022 NFL Draft that the two sides were able to gain meaningful traction in contract discussions. The exact terms of Mathieu's deal may not be known for a few more days, but the 29-year-old is expected to slot in as a starter in an excellent New Orleans secondary that includes cornerbacks Marshon Lattimore and Paulson Adebo, free-agent…read more

  • Cleared to play Sunday

    Mathieu (concussion) will play in Sunday's AFC Championship Game versus the Bengals after having his injury designation removed ahead of the contest.

    Analysis: Mathieu was listed as a full practice participant both Thursday and Friday but headed into the weekend officially listed as questionable while awaiting clearance from NFL's concussion protocol. Sunday's announcement confirms Mathieu's availability against Cincinnati, which sets the stage for him to continue to serve as the Chiefs' starting strong safety. In 16 regular-season outings, the 29-year-old logged 76 tackles, three picks and a sack.

  • Remains in concussion protocol

    Mathieu hasn't cleared the NFL's concussion protocol as of Saturday, but he's expected to do so in advance of Sunday's AFC Championship Game versus the Bengals, Matt Verderame of FanSided.com reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu sustained a head injury during last Sunday's divisional-round win against the Bills when he was accidentally kicked in the helmet by Josh Allen while tackling the quarterback on the first possession of the contest. While Mathieu didn't practice Wednesday, he returned in full Thursday and Friday, signifying that he only requires clearance from an independent neurologist to be able to play this weekend. He'll need to do so by approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 3:00 p.m. ET kickoff…read more

  • On track to play

    Mathieu (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, with Chiefs coach Andy Reid saying Friday that he expects the defensive back to play, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star suggests Mathieu is on track to clear the NFL's concussion protocol Saturday, at which points the Chiefs could also choose to remove him from the final injury report (or not). Mathieu suffered the injury on his seventh snap in last week's win over the Bills, leaving Daniel Sorensen in an every-down role for the remainder of the contest. Sorensen doesn't lack for experience, but the Chiefs should be especially glad to get Mathieu back in the lineup after last…read more

  • Full participant Thursday

    Mathieu (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice session, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.

    Analysis: While coach Andy Reid indicated that Mathieu hasn't yet cleared the league's concussion protocol, it was encouraging to see him back in action without limitations Thursday. Assuming he clears the protocols in the coming days, it wouldn't be surprising to see him start in Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Bengals.

  • Feeling better but misses practice

    Mathieu (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, but Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said the defensive back is doing well and has a chance to play Sunday against the Bengals in the AFC Championship Game, Ben Volin of The Boston Globe reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu and Chiefs nickelback Rashad Fenton (back) are expected to be the only starters listed on the injury reports for either team ahead of Sunday's contest. Fenton missed the first two weeks of the playoffs, but his return to practice Wednesday combined with Reid's optimism on Mathieu suggests the Chiefs could have a healthy secondary by Sunday.

  • Remains in concussion protocol

    Mathieu is in the protocol for head injuries after suffering a concussion during Sunday's playoff victory over the Bills, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu sustained the injury on Buffalo's first drive and was unable to retake the field after the diagnosis was confirmed. The 29-year-old apparently is feeling well, but he'll need to clear league protocols to have a chance of suiting up this weekend against the Bengals.

  • Won't return against Bills

    Mathieu (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Bills.

    Analysis: Further testing confirmed a concussion for Mathieu. He's done for the remainder of the divisional round and will need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol to suit up if the Chiefs advance in the postseason.

  • Evaluated for concussion

    Mathieu is being evaluated for a concussion Sunday against the Bills, Adam Teicher of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu was hit in the head by his own teammate on Buffalo's first drive of the divisional round matchup. The safety was escorted to the locker room for testing, and his return can be considered questionable at this time.

  • Consistent presence on back end

    Mathieu compiled 78 tackles (60 solo), a sack and three interceptions during the 2021 regular season.

    Analysis: Mathieu has been a model of consistency since joining the Chiefs. He's played in no fewer than 15 games in each campaign and has racked up 60-plus tackles and at least three interceptions in all three seasons. Mathieu is finishing up the last of his three-year deal with the Chiefs and may command a hefty salary on the open market, which could result in the veteran moving on from Kansas City.

  • Full participant Wednesday

    Mathieu (quadriceps) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Mathieu left Sunday's blowout win over the Steelers in the second half due to a quad contusion, but coach Andy Reid said Mathieu "feels great" after going through a full practice Wednesday. Barring a setback, the star safety will likely be available when the Chiefs face the Bengals in Week 17.

  • Likely available Sunday

    Coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that Mathieu (quadriceps) "feels great" after leaving Sunday's win over the Steelers in the second half, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Analysis: The Chiefs were blowing the Steelers out when Mathieu was ruled out for the rest of the game, so that may have caused Kansas City to be overly cautious with the star defensive back. Reid also said that the athletic trainers were able to work on the injury right away, which may have allowed Mathieu to recover more quickly than usual. With that said, the Chiefs have yet to release their practice report, which will give a better indication of what Mathieu's status will look like for Week 17.

  • Done for today

    Mathieu (quadriceps) will not return Sunday against the Steelers, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu exited in the second half with the injury. The severity of the injury is unknown and whether Mathieu's inability to return has more to do with the score and time left in the game or the extent of the injury itself. Daniel Sorensen will likely see extra work for the remainder of the game. After the game, coach Andy Reid clarified that Mathieu's injury is a quad contusion, per Nate Taylor of The Athletic, so Mathieu is unlikely to miss additional game action as a result of the injury.

  • Two turnovers in limited play

    Mathieu produced five solo tackles, one interception and one fumble recovery in Sunday's 48-9 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Mathieu had a relatively lackluster tackling performance in the blowout win for the Chiefs, as he played less than 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps (44) for just the second time this season. Nevertheless, Mathieu still managed to account for two turnovers for the first time since Week 2. The star safety has 63 tackles (51 solo), three interceptions and two fumble recoveries in 12 games in 2021.

  • Tallies season-high tackle count

    Mathieu compiled a season-high nine tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Mathieu's 2021 season remains on track to finish near the previous two he turned in for the Chiefs. Through 11 games, Mathieu has 58 tackles (46 solo), a sack and a pair of interceptions, giving him just enough fantasy value to warrant IDP consideration in some formats. Mathieu hasn't tallied an interception since Week 2, however, so he shouldn't be counted on to consistently get involved in that aspect.

  • Suiting up Week 11

    Mathieu (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The star safety was a late addition to the injury report, which naturally raised concerns about his availability for Sunday's interconference showdown. However, Mathieu will fill his usual role against a short-handed Cowboys passing game that will be down Amari Cooper (reserve/COVID-19).

  • Dealing with knee injury

    Mathieu is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys due to a knee injury.

    Analysis: Mathieu was a late addition to the injury report, which isn't a good sign for his availability against Dallas. Backup strong safety Armani Watts (illness) is also questionable, so the Chiefs may need to rely on Daniel Sorensen and Juan Thornhill as their top two safeties against Dak Prescott and the Cowboys' high-powered offense.

    Mathieu (illness) bears no injury designation ahead of Monday night's game against the Giants.

    Mathieu was a non-participant at Friday's practice due to an illness.

    Analysis: The severity of Mathieu's illness is unclear at this time, but he will have an extra day to recover with the Chiefs' Week 8 game being played on Monday. Armani Watts would presumably be in line to replace him at strong safety if Mathieu is ultimatley unable to suit up.

  • Another five stops

    Mathieu recorded five tackles in Sunday's 31-13 win over Washington.

    Analysis: Mathieu has been on the field for 100 percent of the Chiefs' defensive snaps since Week 2. He's recorded at least five tackles in four of five contests while also racking up four passes defended and two interceptions on the campaign.

  • Posts five solo tackles

    Mathieu recorded five solo tackles in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Mathieu recorded six solo tackles, three pass breakups and two interceptions, including a pick-six, in Week 2. That's the upside Mathieu brings to the table, so fantasy managers should be satisfied with his Week 3 effort. The Chiefs will look to bounce back against the Eagles in Week 4.

  • Delivers two picks, touchdown

    Mathieu had six tackles (all solo) and recorded two interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown, during Sunday's 36-35 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Mathieu picked off Lamar Jackson on the third play from scrimmage and returned it 34 yards for a touchdown, which is the third score of his career. The 29-year-old added another interception late in the first quarter as he picked off Jackson in the end zone. Mathieu missed the season opener after testing positive for COVID-19 in early September, but he looked like his playmaking self during his season debut in Week 2.

  • Ready for game action

    Mathieu was not listed on the Chiefs' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: Mathieu was held out of the team's opening game due to an illness, though he managed to participate in warmups prior to the contest. His absence from the injury report and full return to practice means Mathieu will be in line for his season debut in a Week 2 matchup against the Ravens.

  • Won't play in season opener

    Mathieu (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu participated in pregame warmups but was held out in the end. This means the star safety is now likely to make his season debut at Baltimore next Sunday, while Armani Watts could be in line for a bigger role with Mathieu inactive.

  • Status in question for Sunday

    Mathieu (illness), who was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Mathieu tested positive for COVID-19 on Sept. 1, which seemingly gave him enough time to clear all the hurdles associated with NFL protocols and get back on the active roster. He accomplished the feat just one day before the Chiefs' season opener, but perhaps the team is concerned with his conditioning due to the long layoff. Mathieu's status for Week 1 will become known approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Activated from COVID list

    Mathieu was activated from the COVID-19 list Saturday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports

    Analysis: The Chiefs announced Mathieu's activation Saturday, but the team plans to monitor the 29-year-old ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. Mathieu has not participated in practice for over a week, so the team may just be taking precautions to make sure its star safety is ready for game action. If the veteran plays, he will likely give the Chiefs a boost on defense against a Cleveland offense that projects to be formidable in 2021.

  • Week 1 status in doubt

    Mathieu (illness) didn't practice Thursday, and his status for Sunday's season opener against the Browns remains up in the air, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu was placed in the COVID protocols eight days ago. While individuals who are vaccinated -- which Mathieu reportedly is -- don't need to spend a full 10 days in the protocols and can return once they produce two negative tests 48 hours apart, they also must be asymptomatic for 48 hours to be cleared. The deadline to activate Mathieu will be Saturday at 4:00 p.m. EDT.

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Coach Andy Reid said Mathieu (illness) won't practice Wednesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu tested positive for COVID-19 last week and was expected to rejoin the team ahead of Wednesday's practice. It's unclear if he has cleared protocols and simply isn't practicing, or if he is still under protocols, as he hasn't officially been activated off the COVID-19 list. The star safety will be in danger of missing Week 1 if he continues to be absent at practice. Armani Watts is the most likely candidate to start at safety if Mathieu is unable to go.

  • Could return Wednesday

    Coach Andy Reid said Mathieu (illness) remains in COVID-19 protocols, but the safety could rejoin the team ahead of Wednesday's practice, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu has been on the COVID-19 list since testing positive for the virus last week, but he could end up getting a full week of practice ahead of Sunday's season opener against the Browns. Armani Watts remains the likely candidate to start at safety should Mathieu be unable to gain clearance in time.

  • Tests positive for COVID-19

    Mathieu was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday after he tested positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Mathieu has a chance to return after a relatively brief absence since he's fully vaccinated, according to Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star. Under the league's health and safety protocols, he'll need to produce two negative tests administered at least 24 hours apart before returning to the team. The 29-year-old is slated to have a significant role in the Chiefs secondary once he's fully healthy, but Armani Watts would likely start Week 1 against Cleveland if Mathieu is unable to return in…read more

  • Turnover machine in 2020

    Mathieu cranked out 62 tackles (48 solo) and a career-high six interceptions during the 2020 regular season.

    Analysis: Mathieu has been nothing short of spectacular since joining the Chiefs prior to the 2019 season, compiling a combined 10 interceptions and 132 tackles (111 solo). He failed to record a sack for the first time since 2014, but Mathieu made up for it with his ball-hawking ways and remains one of the elite safeties in the NFL. He's owed significant money leading up to 2021 but has given Kansas City little reason to cut ties with his performance since joining the club.

    Mathieu (hip) is expected to play Sunday against the Dolphins, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

  • Questionable with hip injury

    Mathieu (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Mathieu's playmaking ability will be sorely missed if he sits, as he has compiled five interceptions this season, including three in the last two games. If Mathieu can't go, the standout safety would likely be replaced by Juan Thornhill.

  • Leading tackler in Week 1

    Mathieu paved the way with a team-best eight tackles (six solo) Thursday versus the Texans.

    Analysis: Mathieu is no stranger to helping out in the run game, posting at least 75 tackles in each of his last three seasons. While his opening night was fairly quiet otherwise, the Honey Badger does enough on a weekly basis to warrant IDP consideration.

  • Turns in another impressive season

    Mathieu totaled 75 tackles (63 solo), four interceptions and two sacks across 16 regular-season contests in 2019.

    Analysis: Mathieu fell 14 tackles shy of matching the career-high total he recorded in both 2014 and 2018, but he doubled up his interception total from the previous campaign. The safety has two years remaining on the contract he signed with the Chiefs last March, so he should retain his spot at the back end of the Kansas City defense next season.

  • Pads tackle total

    Mathieu notched six tackles (all solo) and a pass defensed Sunday versus the Bears.

    Analysis: Mathieu has notched at least five tackles in each of the last three weeks, leaving him on the IDP radar in some leagues at a defensive back slot. The seventh-year safety would need 14 tackles next week to reach his season total from last year, but he has already surpassed the interceptions mark and is just one off his sack total.

  • Picks up second sack of 2019

    Mathieu recorded five tackles (all solo), including a sack, in Sunday's tilt versus the Broncos.

    Analysis: Mathieu has hit a fantasy stride in recent weeks, notching six tackles against the Patriots the week prior and an interception in each of the two weeks before that. Chicago typically tries to get tight ends and running backs involved in the passing game, so Mathieu could have another solid tackle day ahead in Week 16.

  • Notches second INT of season

    Matheu recorded an interception, two passes defensed and eight tackles (four solo) in Monday's game against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Mathieu fell just two tackles shy of his season-high 10 recorded during Week 6 versus the Texans. Mathieu has already matched the two interceptions he has posted in each of the last two seasons, but he's on pace to fall short of the career-high 89 tackles he recorded last year in Houston.
