In place of an injured David Hawthorne (ankle), Humber made 12 tackles (seven solo) and a sack in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. |
Humber doesn't offer much in coverage, but he's a big guy who excels at stopping the run. With the 49ers running the ball as often as they passed on Sunday, Humber posted a double-digit tackles, and the sack was the cherry on top of a surprising day for those who relied on him in IDP leagues. If Hawthorne is forced to miss additional time, Humber could again post decent numbers against a run-oriented Bengals' offense in Week 11. |

Starting in place of the injured David Hawthorne, Humber made three tackles (all solo) in Sunday's win against the Vikings. |
From an IDP standpoint, it was an uninspiring performance, though the Saints' defense as a whole performed admirably in holding Minnesota to only nine points. If Hawthorne misses any further time, Humber will likely continue to start, though the career backup is merely an average IDP option, at best. |
Fri Sep 19 2014 | 17:28 | Humber will likely start at inside linebacker |
With David Hawthorne ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Humber will likely start at inside linebacker. |
Humber could have some IDP value as a spot-starter in place of the injured Hawthorne, who's dealing with a balky hamstring. In three starts last season, Humber made 14 total tackles. |

Humber was among the Saints top special teamers last season, posting six solo tackles on that unit and recovering two on-side kicks.

An undersized weak-side linebacker type at 5-foot-11 and 232 pounds, Humber won't be a candidate to play on defense in Rob Ryan's new 3-4. He did rack up eight special teams tackles in 2012 and could earn a roster spot there. |

Mon Aug 6 2012 | 17:54 | Saints make four roster moves |
Saints signed LB Ramon Humber and WR Kevin Hardy. |
CB Laron Scott and OG Scott Winnewisser were waived in corresponding moves. A four-year veteran, Humber notched 21 tackles in 13 games for last season, but was non-tendered and handed a three-game ban for his role in the Saints' bounty scandal. Humber will be allowed to play during the preseason, but it's unlikely he'll crack the 53-man roster once his suspension is up. |
