The Saints signed Yiadom on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Yiadom is now set to remain in New Orleans for the time being following Thursday's transaction. The 27-year-old began last season as a member of the Texans before he was let go in November. The Saints signed him to their practice squad two days later, and Yiadom eventually served as a special-teams contributor across the team's final six games in 2022.

Yiadom (thigh) is out for Sunday's matchup against the Bears. While it is unclear when he sustained the injury, Yiadom did not practice in any fashion Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. The 26-year-old cornerback was able to play 50 special-teams snaps through the first two matchups of the 2022 campaign. Steven Nelson, the No. 1 left cornerback for the team, will continue to be counted on heavily.
