Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Carney was signed after Garrett Hartley missed a 29-yard field goal in overtime that would have given the Saints a win in their 27-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. On the season, Hartley is just 4-for-7 on field goal attempts. According to ESPN insider Adam Schefter, the Saints plan to keep both men on the roster again this season. They did the same last year for nearly three months after Hartley came back from a four-game suspension to begin the season. Carney held the job through the first 11 games, then Hartley took over for the final five games of the regular season and the playoffs.
