The New Orleans Saints officially brought in a large group of free agents for tryouts on Thursday.
The full list includes:
Of this group, the Saints opted to sign Cooks and Miller-Hines to their practice squad.
Hines, 29, is a former fourth-round pick of the Colts back in 2018. He was in the final year of his four-year rookie contract and would have been an unrestricted free agent in 2022 before agreeing to a three-year, $18.6 million extension with the Colts in 2021.
However, Indianapolis traded him to the Bills at the deadline in 2022. He earned base salaries of $4.45 million and $5.1 million in the final two years of the deal.
Hines then signed a one-year deal with the Browns worth up to $3.5 million. The Chargers signed him to a contract this summer before releasing him coming out of the preseason.
The Chargers re-signed him and has been on and off their practice squad and active roster this season.
In 2022, Hines appeared in seven games for the Colts and nine games for the Bills. He rushed for 33 yards on 24 carries (1.4 YPC) to go along with 30 receptions on 37 targets for 241 yards receiving and two total touchdowns.
In 2025, Hines has appeared in three games and rushed two times for – two yards.
