Free agent defensive tackle Kevin Williams has confirmed that he visited the Saints, but he added his preference is to remain with the Seahawks.
The former Vikings standout and six-time Pro Bowler is hoping to play one more year in the NFL.
"I want to go back to Seattle, but this is business," he told the St. Paul Pioneer-Press. "They're still evaluating their roster. I guess there's not that many 12-year veterans that everyone wants. Everyone wants to go younger."
Williams, who played the 2014 season under a one-year, $2 million contract, added that he was not close to signing a contract with New Orleans.
"We talked. It was a good visit," he said. "I would fit in there. But I don't know what's going to happen."
