Notes and observations from Wednesday’s minicamp practice.
Attendance: Cam Jordan and Michael Thomas were not spotted.
Limited: Tre’quan Smith, Cam Meredith, Brandon Coleman, Deon Yelder, Daniel Lasco, Trey Hendrickson, Alex Okafor, Marcus Davenport
Different pace: After having a lot of team periods and action to follow during Tuesday’s practice, Wednesday’s session looked a little different. There were periods spent walking through some running plays and a lot of time on kickoffs. The team only had one team period where all the quarterbacks received reps. The practice ended with Drew Brees leading a two-minute period.
Special teams: The way on the team for a lot of players will be through special teams, so it is important to pay attention to who is getting reps with the various units. It’s too soon to handicap anything, but it is notable that guys like wide receiver Travin Dural, cornerback Arthur Maulet, running back Trey Edmunds and defensive back J.T. Gray all got work on the kick return team. Josh Huff, Boston Scott, Ted Ginn, Alvin Kamara and Tommylee Lewis all returned kicks.
Wil Lutz and Thomas Morstead both attempted onside kicks. The team also had a period where it attempted hurry-up field goals. ...

The New Orleans Saints wasted no time finding a Will Harris replacement, inking former Kansas City Chiefs safety Justin Reid to a three-year, $31.5 million deal with $22.5 million guaranteed, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Former Saints 1st-round pick Payton Turner signed by Cowboys
One of the bigger disappointments in recent NFL Draft memory for the New Orleans Saints has moved on. Payton Turner has reportedly agreed to a 1-year $3 million contract with the Dallas Cowboys. The Saints obviously did not pick up his fifth-year option, so Turner departs for Dallas after just four seasons in New Orleans.
Turner was picked with the 28th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft after a good but unremarkable career at the University of Houston. He was a project but never managed to stay on the field, as he only played 31 of a possible 68 games during his tenure in New Orleans due...

Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu agrees to a reworked contract
The New Orleans Saints and veteran safety Tyrann Mathieu have agreed to a reworked contract, per Nick Underhill.
Mathieu’s new agreement will keep him in New Orleans for the 2025 season at a lower cap hit and with incentives, he can make up to $7.2 million.
