Saints' Martin Emerson: Headed to New Orleans
The Saints signed Emerson on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Emerson worked out with the team earlier in the day and seemingly impressed enough to earn a contract. The 25-year-old has spent the entirety of his three-year career with Cleveland, totaling 202 tackles (158 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four interceptions across 50 games. With the Saints lacking proven talent at cornerback, Emerson could have a chance to start alongside Kool-Aid McKinstry during the 2026 campaign.

Saints' Tyree Wilson: Fifth-year option declined
The Saints declined Wilson's fifth-year option Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
As the seventh overall pick in 2023 Draft and a defensive end, Wilson's fifth-year option would have come in at $14.475 million. The pass rusher's career has been disappointing thus far in relation to the draft capital invested in him, so it makes sense that the Saints' trade acquisition is more of a one-year flyer on a once-promising and athletic player and not a commitment to pursue his future. If Wilson can revive his career in 2026 with a better season, the team may look to keep his services in New Orleans long term.

Saints' Devaughn Vele: Facing competition from rookies
Vele (shoulder) faces increased competition for playing time and targets after the Saints used three picks on wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
New Orleans used the No. 8 overall pick on Jordyn Tyson, who figures to start alongside Chris Olave from Day 1, and later on the Saints took Bryce Lance in the fourth round and Barion Brown in the sixth. Acquired from the Broncos during the preseason last summer, Vele appeared in 13 regular-season games for the Saints, making seven starts, and produced a 25-293-2 line on 39 targets. Following the trade of Rashid Shaheed to Seattle, Vele became a starter but was injured in Week 15 and missed the final three contests. Capable of playing the slot or outside and on special teams, Vele should have a role in 2026, but the target competition is much stiffer.

Saints' Mason Shipley: Saints bring in kicker
The Saints signed Shipley as an undrafted free agent Sunday.
Shipley ended his final season with the Texas Longhorns 20-for-24 on field-goal attempts, with his longest make coming in at 53 yards. The kicker should provide Charlie Smyth with some competition in camp, as Smyth logged only six NFL starts with the Saints in 2025 after taking over for Blake Grupe.

Saints' Cody Hardy: Picked up by New Orleans
The Saints signed Hardy as an undrafted free agent Sunday.
Hardy played in 44 games over his college career, spending three years at Elon before transferring to North Carolina State as a senior. The tight end produced just six receptions for 83 yards and two touchdowns in his final season, but his main value came as a run blocker. The 6-foot-5, 271-pound rookie will have to show significant special teams upside for a shot to remain on the Saints' depth chart come September.

Saints' CJ Donaldson: Signing with New Orleans
The Saints signed Donaldson as an undrafted free agent Sunday.
Donaldson played in 13 games for Ohio State in 2025, logging 96 carries for 361 yards and 10 rushing touchdowns over his senior season. The 21-year-old spent the first three years of his collegiate career at West Virginia, logging 171 and 163 carries in his sophomore and junior seasons, respectively. As a well-built downhill back, his upside for the Saints comes as a depth option for short-yardage situations.

Saints' Anfernee Jennings: Heading to Big Easy
Jennings is expected to sign with the Saints on Sunday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Jennings spent the last five seasons with the Patriots, accumulating 132 tackles and 7.5 sacks. The 2020 third-round pick was let go by New England on March 11. Jennings is heading into his age-29 season, and he should provide veteran depth behind Carl Granderson and Chase Young.
