Hansen was signed to the Saints' practice squad Saturday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

Hansen has struggled to hold down a consistent role in the NFL, but New Orleans' lack of established wide receivers could offer Hansen a chance to make an impact if he's able to work his way up to the active roster. The 26-year-old wide receiver has 26 catches in 20 career NFL appearances, and this signing suggests Hansen's over the undisclosed injury he had previously been dealing with.
