Saints Hosting DT Nick Fairley For A Visit, Rams Interested “At The Right Price”

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Saints are hosting free agent DT Nick Fairley for a visit on Thursday.

Previous reports have also mentioned the Jets and Eagles as potential landing spots for the former first-round pick.

Fairley, 27, wound up finding a limited free agent market last year, which led to him signing a one-year, $5 million contract with the Rams. He’s once again in position to be an unrestricted free agent, but will hopefully get more security that a one-year deal this time around.

In 2015, Fairley appeared in 15 games and recorded 29 tackles, a half sack, a fumble recovery and a pass defense for the Rams. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 23 interior defensive lineman out of 123 qualifying players.

We have him featured in our Top 2016 Free Agents list.
