A fifth round choice out of Wisconsin in 2019 for Los Angeles, David Edwards worked his way up in the ranks to become the starting guard in the Rams in the Super Bowl 56 winning season. Four years later, he moved on to Buffalo, spending three years with the Bills, anchoring an offensive front that opened holes for James Cook III each of those years. Cook eclipsed 1-thousand yards each of those years and claimed the NFL rushing title in 2025 with over 16-hundred yards. Edwards signed a four-year deal with the Saints in March of this year for just over $60-million.
Edwards is the linch pin to solidifying the Saints offensive front. Now with Kelvin Banks Jr., Edwards, Erik McCoy, Cesar Ruiz and Taliese Fuaga the club has pieced together a solid front five to protect quarterback Tyler Shough and open holes for Travis Etienne and Alvin Kamara.Welcome to New Orleans HeatThe Badger alum now comes to the Crescent City in late July-early August with temperatures hovering near 95-degrees each day.
