Noah Spence: Cut by Saints
Noah Spence was released by the Saints on Monday, Jeff Nowak of WWL Radio Sports reports.Working his way back from a torn ACL that wiped out his 2020 campaign, Spence was trying to make the conversion from defensive end to linebacker in order to make the Saints roster. It appears that experiment is over, at least for the time being, as New Orleans trims its roster in order to meet league requirements before Tuesday's deadline.

Saints' Noah Spence: Placed on NFI-R list
Noah Spence was placed on the New Orleans Saints' Non-Football Injury Reserve list Tuesday with a knee injury, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.Spence tore his ACL while preparing for training camp and was placed on the NFI list in order to make room on the 90-man roster for another player. The 26-year-old recorded three tackles (one solo) and a sack across seven games with the Saints last season. The team has yet to provide a timeline for Spence's return, but given the timing and nature for his injury, it's likely he'll be sidelined for most, if not all, of the 2020 season.

Buccaneers' Noah Spence: Slated for new role in 2019
General manager Jason Licht indicated Wednesday that Noah Spence could be used as a linebacker in 2019, Scott Smith of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' official site reports.Tampa Bay is transitioning to a 3-4 base defensive scheme under new coordinator Todd Bowles, and the relatively undersized Spence would be a poor fit up front in the trenches in such a system. That means Bowles could have Spence turn his focus to setting the edge from an upright stance. Regardless of where he lines up, Spence still has a lot of work to do in order to carve out a bigger role than he held in 2018. He logged more than 10 defensive snaps on two occasions, but there's potential for him to significantly rebound from a three-tackle, zero-sack season.

Buccaneers' Noah Spence: Adds 35 pounds as offseason initative
Noah Spence, eager to add some weight following the end of last season, put on 35 pounds this offseason, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.The recipe for the added pounds included devouring nine to 10 meals per day during the offseason. The body transformation is aimed at making Spence a more complete football player in which he can serve as a three-down defensive end rather than a pass-rushing specialist. The first live-action glimpse of a more complete Spence can be seen during Thursday's preseason game against Miami.

Buccaneers' Noah Spence: Back to full health
Noah recently indicated that he's 100 percent healthy and his shoulder has regained full range of motion, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.The beginning of Noah Spence's professional career has been derailed by a reported four different shoulder dislocations. The 2016 second-rounder didn't need to miss a game after one such dislocation during his rookie year, but Spence experienced another in Week 2 of last season and was ultimately placed on injured reserve in late October after trying to play through the pain. In an effort to put the issue behind him, Spence had a Latarjet procedure that is designed to treat recurring shoulder dislocations. The defensive end now can focus on carving out a role in the pass-rush rotation ahead of the 2018 campaign. With offseason acquisitions Jason Pierre-Paul and Vinny Curry brought in as likely starters, Spence will presumably begin the year in a backup role.
