The New Orleans Saints have been actively reshaping their roster this offseason, highlighted by efforts to retain key players like Derek Carr and Cam Jordan despite cap constraints. They pursued Cooper Kupp, who ultimately signed with the Seahawks, leading the Saints to sign versatile player Velus Jones Jr. Known for his special teams prowess, Jones has experience as both a wide receiver and running back. Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks have shown interest in former Saints lineman Lucas Patrick, although no deal has been finalized. The Saints are also considering acquiring free-agent wide receiver Keenan Allen to bolster their offensive lineup, as part of a strategy to remain competitive in the near term.
