Pro Football Rumors
Cam Akers caught on with the Saints after a minicamp tryout, but he has not done enough to make New Orleans’ initial 53-man roster. The Saints are moving on a bit early, NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero notes.
A vested veteran, Akers can head straight into free agency. He would be able to sign elsewhere once the release is official, rather than joining waived players in needing to wait until Wednesday’s pivotal 11am CT claiming deadline.
More to come.
