Terrance West's workout Wednesday with the
New Orleans Saints had positive results.
The
Saints are signing West to a deal, according to a source informed of the situation.
The addition of West should immediately bolster a
Saints running back group that will begin the regular season without
Mark Ingram, who will serve a four-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances.
Barring the addition of another running back, the
Saints would have gone through the first four games with
Alvin Kamara,
Jonathan Williams,
Trey Edmunds,
Daniel Lasco and rookie
Boston Scott.
The 5-foot-10, 225-pound West is set to join the group with five years of NFL experience. He entered the league in 2014 out of Towson as a third-round pick with the
Cleveland Browns before being traded to the
Tennessee Titans in 2015. West then joined the
Baltimore Ravens in 2015 and spent three seasons with the club.
