  • John Hughes: Let go by Buffalo

    Hughes (groin) has been released by the Bills in an injury settlement.

    Hughes was injured in the preseason opener, and the Bills quickly moved to add a healthier depth option at defensive tackle, signing journeyman Tyrunn Walker to take his place.

  • Bills' John Hughes: Battling groin injury

    Hughes suffered a groin injury in Thursday's preseason game against the Panthers, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.

    Hughes just signed with the Bills a couple weeks ago and is in line to fight for a backup role on the team's defensive line. However, in order to do so, he'll need to remain healthy. Fortunately, it's not considered to be a serious injury, but Hughes cannot afford to be sidelined for too long.

  • Bills' John Hughes: Signs with Buffalo

    Hughes signed a contract with the Bills on Thursday.

    Hughes played for the Saints in 2017, appearing in eight games and recording 10 tackles prior to tearing his biceps and being placed on IR. Now healthy, Hughes will look to earn a backup role along the Bills' defensive line, competing against Harrison Phillips and Adolphus Washington.

  • Saints' John Hughes: Sent to IR with torn biceps

    The Saints placed Hughes (biceps) on injured reserve Wednesday, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Hughes exited Sunday's victory over the Falcons with what was first believed to be an elbow injury. However, further testing revealed a much worse diagnosis, with the defensive tackle sustaining a torn biceps. Hughes will end the 2017 campaign with 10 tackles over eight appearances. The Saints signed veteran Tony McDaniel to take Hughes' spot on the roster.

  • Saints' John Hughes: Questionable with elbow injury

    Hughes suffered an elbow injury during Sunday's game against the Falcons and is questionable to return, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Hughes functions primarily as a reserve defensive lineman so his absence shouldn't alter the New Orleans game plan too much moving forward. In the meantime, look for David Onyemata to fill in where needed.

  • Saints' John Hughes: Returning to New Orleans

    Hughes re-signed with the Saints on Wednesday, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Hughes, who had just been cut by the Saints on Monday, will restock the Saints' depth at defensive tackle. He has made one appearance with the team in 2017, but only saw 11 defensive snaps in that contest.

  • John Hughes: Cut by Saints

    Hughes was released by the Saints on Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Hughes became expendable once the team opted to bring in offensive tackle Bryce Harris. The Cincinnati product has registered just seven combined tackles over the last three seasons.

  • Saints' John Hughes: Rejoins Saints

    Hughes re-signed with the Saints on Tuesday, Nick Underhill of The Advocate reports.

    Hughes was let go by the Saints last Friday but now returns to the team, as they only have three healthy defensive tackles on the roster. Look for the 29-year-old to return to a reserve role on defense.

  • John Hughes: Cut by Saints

    The Saints opted to let Hughes go Friday, Josh Katzenstein of the Times-Picayune reports.

    Hughes, who failed to make the Saints' final roster during training camp, re-signed with the team last week. The 29-year-old was cut so the team could make room to add more offensive line depth. He will be a likely candidate to land on the practice squad.

  • Saints' John Hughes: Inks contract with New Orleans

    Hughes signed a contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Joel A. Erickson of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

    Hughes had previously attended training camp with the Saints but was part of the wave of final cuts. Following the placement of offensive lineman Zach Strief (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, a roster spot opened up for Hughes, who will likely serve as the backup to nose tackle Tyeler Davison. The 29-year-old has made 58 career appearances in the NFL with the Browns and Buccaneers, logging 115 tackles and 5.5 sacks during that time.

  • Saints' John Hughes: Picked up by Saints

    Hughes agreed to a deal with the Saints on Saturday, Mike Triplett of ESPN reports.

    Hughes spent four years with the Browns before playing with both them and the Buccaneers last season. He will look to earn a role providing depth at defensive tackle for the Saints. The veteran will be competing against Justin Zimmer, Mitchell Loewen and Ashaad Mabry for the opportunity.
