Suspended six games
Baker has been suspended six games for violating the league's PED policy, Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network reports.
Analysis: Baker will be first available to return during the Saints' Week 7 clash against the Cardinals on Thursday Night Football. After being selected 255th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft by New Orleans, Baker spent his rookie season jumping back and forth between the team's active roster and practice squad, where he ultimately appeared in two games on special teams. Given the second-year receiver entered camp fighting for a roster spot, the near future doesn't present a clear path to targets for Baker,…read more

Sticks with Saints
The Saints signed Baker to a reserve/future contract Monday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Baker was a seventh-round pick in the 2021 draft and spent the majority of the season on the Saints' practice squad. He was elevated to the active roster for two games and played entirely on special teams. Baker will have a chance to make the Saints' active roster in 2022 with a strong showing during offseason activities and training camp.

Elevated to active roster
The Saints elevated Baker from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Analysis: After making his season debut in Week 16, Baker will be elevated for a second straight game. In his first contest, the rookie seventh-round pick recorded one tackle while playing 16 snaps on special teams. He's expected to have a similar role in Week 17.

Back to practice squad
Baker reverted to the Saints' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Elevated Monday
Baker was elevated from the Saints' practice squad ahead of Monday's game against the Dolphins, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Baker will join the active roster as a COVID-19 replacement for Week 16. The 2021 seventh-rounder hasn't yet made his regular-season debut in the NFL, and he's unlikely to have a significant fantasy role Monday.

Exits New Orleans
The Saints waived Baker on Tuesday.
Analysis: Baker was considered to have an outside shot at landing on New Orleans' 53-man roster but ultimately did not make the cut. Still, the Saints' seventh-round draft pick seems like a prime candidate to land on its practice squad should he ultimately go unclaimed on waivers.

Working with starters
Baker operated with the starting offense during Wednesday's practice, John Hendrix of Sports Illustrated reports.
Analysis: Baker apparently lined up opposite Marquez Callaway when the offense first took the field. Those two then rotated reps with Tre'Quan Smith, Deonte Harris, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Chris Hogan. While it may be hard to predict how the pecking order at receiver will shake out with Michael Thomas (ankle) sidelined, Baker at least seems to be making a strong case for a roster spot ahead of the regular season.
