Nick Underhill of the Advocate reports that the Saints are “pretty far down the line” with veteran OL Jermon Bushrod.

Bushrod, 33, is a former fourth-round pick of the Saints back in 2007. He spent six years in New Orleans before he departed in free agency for a five-year, $35.965 million contractย that includedย $22.465 million guaranteed with the Bears. Unfortunately, Bushrod lasted just three seasons in Chicago before he was released in 2016.

The Dolphins signed him to a one-year contract two years ago and brought him on another one-year deal for the 2017 season.

In 2017, Bushrod appeared in 10 games for the Dolphins and Pro Football Focus rated him as the No. 62 overall guard out of 77 qualifying players.

We’ll have more regarding Bushrod and the Saints as the news is available.
