Saints waive 7th round QB Canfield; WR Tanner

Saints seventh-round quarterback Sean Canfield has been waived, WWL-TV Sports reports. Canfield has not attempted a pass during the pre-season, taking three kneel-downs at the end of the Saints’ second pre-season game.

The Saints Re-sign DT Kendrick Clancy

According to league sources, the Saints have re-signed DT Kendrick Clancy to a 1-year deal. The 10-year veteran had previously played three seasons with the Saints before being placed on IR with a knee injury in 2009.

Mounting up over 552 yards of total offense, New Orleans picked up right where it left off, effectively mixing up passes and [...]

The Saints vs the Chargers: A Look Ahead

The last time these two teams met was during October 2008 in London’s Wembley Stadium. The game had been billed (and rightfully so) as one of the most anticipated of the season with the two high-flying offenses squaring off in the International Series before a record crowd. It would not disappoint, as the playmakers stepped [...]

Saints Sign LB K.C. Asiodu

In another shocking turn of events, the Saints have signed LB K.C. Asiodu. Asiodu, who spent most of last year with the St. Louis Rams, is obviously a more youthful replacement for just-released Troy Evans. The 6’2 242 pound linebacker became a member of the Rams last year as an undrafted free agent out of [...]

Saints Release LB Troy Evans and 4 Others
