- Adam Caplan adds that WR Nathan Palmer also worked out for the Saints.
Moore, 27, is a former fifth-round pick of the Raiders back in 2011. He played out his rookie contract with the Raiders before signing a one-year deal with the Bengals last April.
Moore was unfortunately among theย Bengals’ย final roster cuts, but later caught on with the Bills before being cut loose in November.
This is the first reported interest in Moore since free agency opened several months ago.
In 2015, Moore has appeared in five games, totaling 70 kick return yards and 77 punt return yards.
Brown, 27, is a former third-round pick of the Chargers back in 2011. However, he lasted just over three years inย San Diego before he waivedย with anย injury settlement at the start of the 2014 season.
After one year with the Raiders, Brown later caughtย on with the Colts, but was among their final roster cuts at the start of the 2015 season.ย The Chargers elected to bring him back towards the end of the year.
In 2015, Brown caught a single pass for 22 yards receiving and no touchdowns in one game.
