Lewis was not tendered by the Saints as a restricted free agent.
Lewis, 26, wound up signing on with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Northern Illinois back in 2016. He was in the final year of his three-year, $1.62 million contract and made a base salary of $630,000 for the 2018 season.
In 2018, Lewis appeared in seven games for the Saints and caught three passes for 60 yards receiving and one touchdown. He also rushed twice for 10 yards and totaled 69 kick return yards.
Brown, 25, signed on with the Rams as an undrafted free agent out of Texas back in 2015. He was promoted from their practice squad later that year and finished his three-year contract with the team.
Los Angeles re-signed him to a one-year exclusive rights contract over the offseason.
In 2018, Brown appeared in 12 games for the Rams and recorded 43 rush attempts for 212 yards (4.9 YPC) to go along with five receptions for 52 yards receiving (10.4 YPC) and one touchdown.
