Nick Underhill reports that some of the notable free agents trying out for the Saints this weekend include DT Jay Bromley, DT Tyrunn Walker, S Matt Elam, OT Michael Ola and DB Sharrod Neasman.
Both Walker and Bromley tried out for the Jets but neither player was signed to a contract following the session.
Walker, 28, originally signed on with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Tulsa back in 2012. After two years in New Orleans, Walker signed a one-year, $1.75 million deal with the Lions back in March of 2015 and later returned to Detroit on another one-year contract.
The Rams signed Walker to a one-year, $775,000 contract last March only to release soon after sexual assault allegations surfaced against him. Once Walker was cleared in the matter, he returned to the Rams on another one-year deal.
In 2017, Walker appeared in all 16 games for the Rams and recorded 23 tackles, one sack, a forced fumble, a recovery and four pass defenses. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 110 interior defender out of 122 qualifying players.
Bromley, 25, is a former third-round pick of the Giants back in 2014. He played out the final year of his four-year, $3,003,876 rookie contract and is not testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his NFL career.
In 2017, Bromley appeared in all 16 games for the Giants and recorded 21 tackles, one sack and a pass defense.
