According to Howard Balzer, the New Orleans Saints brought in free agent WRs Fred Brown and Reggie Davis for tryouts on Friday.
Davis, 22, wound up signing a three-year, $1.66 million contract with the Falcons as an undrafted free agent out of Georgia back in 2017. He was, unfortunately, waived coming out of the preseason and later claimed by the Browns.
Davis later returned to the Falcons, signing on to their practice squad and eventually re-signing with Atlanta this past January. However, Davis was once again waived coming out of the preseason.
Davis had a brief stint on the Eagles’ practice squad.
During his four-year college career at Georgia, Davis recorded 47 kickoff returns for 998 yards (21.2 YPR) and 34 punt returns for 251 yards (7.4 YPR) and scored one touchdown. As a receiver, Davis caught 38 passes for 618 yards receiving (16.3 YPC) for two touchdowns.
Brown, 24, wound up signing a three-year, $1.66 million contract with the Colts as an undrafted free agent out of Mississippi State back in 2017. He was set to make base salaries of $465,000 and $555,000 over the first two years of the contract when the Colts cut him loose coming out of the preseason and later signed him to their practice squad.
Brown later signed on to the Rams’ practice squad last year and returned to Los Angeles on a futures contract this past January. However, he was once again waived at the start of the regular season.
During his college career at Mississippi State, Brown caught 50 passes for 785 yards receiving and five touchdowns over the course of three seasons and 23 games.
