Several veterans have been able to revitalize their careers with the New Orleans Saints recently. Defensive linemen Nick Fairley, Malcom Brown, Tanoh Kpassagnon, LBs A.J. Klein, Demario Davis, RB Latavious Murray, WR Ted Ginn Jr., and G Ben Grubbs weren't signings that made big headlines. However, each were crucial additions that would make key contributions.

The Saints have had an active offseason, but not one that has grabbed national headlines. Outside of DE Chase Young, who is trying to revitalize his own career, they haven't added any splashy names. However, there are some under-the-radar veterans who could wind up playing a key role in New Orleans and jumpstart their careers with a big year.

James Robinson, RB

New Orleans actually added Robinson to their practice squad for the final three games last season. This offseason, they retained him on a reserve/futures contract to compete for a job in their backfield.

NEW ORLEANS — The New Orleans Saints are behind on payments for Caesars Superdome renovation costs.

There may not be a tougher job in the NFL than running with a receiver in press coverage. The margin for error shrinks to almost nothing, and defensive backs are at a disadvantage by running while being asked to keep their hands on the wideout and tracking the ball in flight — and doing it all while sprinting backwards.

But some corners are better at it than others. And New Orleans Saints nickel Alontae Taylor earned high praise for his skills in press coverage from Touchdown Wire’s Doug Farrar, who ranked him seventh-best among his peers. Taylor struggled to learn on the job in the slot...
