Holtz reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

However, he was ultimately ruled inactive pregame, as top tight end Juwan Johnson (quadriceps) was deemed available in his usual starting role. Holtz did not record a target over six games with New Orleans this season, and he has logged just one target since the 2019 campaign.
