Saints Sign Edwards-Helaire to Reserve/Future Contract

Clyde Edwards-Helaire has re-signed with the New Orleans Saints on a one-year reserve/future contract, as announced by the team. Originally a first-round draft pick by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2020, Edwards-Helaire had a promising start but struggled with injuries and competition, leading to his release in December 2024. After joining the Saints' practice squad late last season, he played in two games, recording 46 rushing yards and 24 receiving yards. The 25-year-old Louisiana native and former LSU star aims to revitalize his career under new Saints head coach Kellen Moore. With this contract, Edwards-Helaire will participate in upcoming team activities and attempt to secure a spot on the roster for the 2025 season. His career totals include over 1,800 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns, alongside notable receiving contributions.
