Lil’Jordan Humphrey is one of the names that stands out among the crew of undrafted rookie free agents to come to New Orleans following the 2019 NFL Draft.

Greg Dortch out of Wake Forest was picked up by the New York Jets. Jamarius Way, a South Alabama product, was invited to rookie minicamp with the Packers but wasn’t signed. He’s actually still a free agent having played two and a half hours down the road in Mobile.
