Saints RT Ryan Ramczyk will miss the 2024 season after being placed on the reserve/PUP on Thursday, according to Ian Rapoport.
Ramczyk has been battling a knee injury that has been described as career-threatening, and the Saints have become more pessimistic about his outlook as the offseason has progressed.
Ramczyk, 30, is a former first-round pick of the Saints back in 2017. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $8.891 million contract when the Saints exercised his fifth-year option for 2021.
Ramcyzk was set to make $11.064 million for the 2021 season on the fifth-year option when he agreed to a five-year, $96 million extension with the team.
He made a $14 million base salary for the 2023 season. His cap number was previously set to be $27.025 million for the 2024 season before they restructured his deal this offseason to lower that number to $12.86 million.
In 2023, Ramczyk appeared in and started 12 games for the Saints at right tackle.
