There is definite interest from the New Orleans Saints in San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Ricky Jean-Francois, a source said Tuesday, and a visit with the Saints could come shortly after free agency begins Tuesday afternoon.

Jean-Francois, an unrestricted free agent and former LSU standout, played in San Francisco's 3-4 defensive scheme and could be a solid fit in New Orleans, especially with Sedrick Ellis about to hit the free-agent market. He recorded 22 total tackles and two sacks in 16 games last season (three starts).

Without Ellis, the Saints have Brodrick Bunkley, Akiem Hicks and Tom Johnson as their primary defensive tackles.
