According to Field Yates, the Saints are signing veteran TE Jesse James to a contract on Wednesday.
New Orleans also signed FB Jake Bargas and waived K Alex Quevedo, per the NFL Transactions wire.
James, 28, is a former fifth-round pick of the Steelers back in 2015. He played out his rookie contract in Pittsburgh.
The Lions signed James to a four-year contract as a free agent in 2019. However, Detroit later terminated James’s deal, taking on $4.287 million in dead money. He signed a one-year deal with the Bears for the 2021 season. He signed a one-year deal with the Browns last year.
In 2022, James appeared in two games for the Browns.
