New Orleans looking to add competition to a thin position group ahead of minicamp.
The New Orleans Saints are bringing in former UFL TE Seth Green as they look to boost competition in an arguably thin position group ahead of minicamp, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.
Seth Green, a 6-foot-4, 240-pound tight end, spent last season with the Arlington Renegades of the UFL after transitioning from quarterback to tight end during his time at the University of Houston. The 27-year-old snagged 13 receptions for 157 yards in 14 games for the Cougars his senior year.
Before transferring to Houston, Green spent three seasons with the Minnesota Golden Gophers, where he rushed for 388 yards and 15 touchdowns on 114 attempts—more rushing yards than his combined receiving and passing yards (297). He also hauled in six receptions for 83 yards during his time in Minnesota while earning Academic All-Big Ten honors in 2020.
Green signed with the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent following the 2022 NFL Draft and participated in training camp before ultimately being released during initial 53-man roster cuts. In October of 2022, Green joined the Dallas Cowboys practice squad.
After originally signing a letter of intent with the Houston Roughnecks, Green was selected by Arlington in the XFL Dispersal Draft in January of 2024.
Last season in the UFL, Green caught 11 passes for 86 yards and one touchdown while adding three rushing yards on two carries in 10 games for the Renegades.
He delivers when given the opportunity and his versatility could be valuable in Kellen Moore’s offense.
