Fantasy Impact:

Alonso accounted for 31 tackles and a pass deflection in 2019, playing a pivotal role as a newcomer to the Saints defense after being traded from the Dolphins. New Orleans will stand to benefit from Alonso's return, as they have allowed 25 total PPG compared to just 21.3 PPG in 2019.
