New Orleans is buzzing with news as the New Orleans Saints made significant roster adjustments on Friday, signing three new players and parting ways with others. The team announced that they have added tight end Seth Green, cornerback Jayden Price, and offensive tackle Barry Wesley to one-year contracts.
In a move that signals a fresh start in their running back room, the Saints cut Xazavian Valladay just days after bringing in veteran running back Cam Akers. A source confirmed this transaction, which the NFL Network first reported. This change comes as the team evaluated its depth at the position following the recent signing of Akers.
Executive Vice President and General Manager Mickey Loomis gave the green light for these changes, stating, “We are continually looking to improve our roster, and these signings reflect our commitment to putting together the best team possible.”
The Saints also waived cornerback Travion Fluellen, further clearing space for the new signings. These roster moves are crucial as the team prepares for the upcoming season and strives to enhance their performance on the field.
This year, the New Orleans Saints will face off against the Buffalo Bills in Week 4, marking their first matchup against an AFC East opponent. The game is set for September 28 at noon and will be available on CBS. Historically, the Saints have held an edge in their series against the Bills, leading it 7-5.
As preparations ramp up, all eyes are on the Saints to see how these new additions will impact their play moving forward in the 2025 season.
