The Saints officially placed DB Adonis Alexander and G Michael Brown on the injured reserve after waiving both players with injury designations.
Alexander, 24, was selected by Washington in the sixth round of the 2018 supplemental draft. He signed a four-year rookie deal worth $2.6 million but was waived by Washington coming out of the preseason in 2019 and re-signed to the practice squad.
Washington later released Alexander from their practice squad. He caught on with the Rams’ practice squad and signed a futures deal for 2020 but was waived again coming out of camp. He signed a futures deal with the 49ers for 2021 but was cut back in May.
The Saints signed him to a deal earlier this month.
In 2018, Alexader appeared in nine games for Washington and recorded four total tackles.
