Saints sign former Patriots EDGE fresh off of Super Bowl appearance

Here's another veteran pass rusher joining the New Orleans Saints . NewOrleans. Football's Nick Underhill reports that the Saints are signing former New England Patriots linebacker Anfernee Jennings, which was confirmed by ESPN's Jeremy Fowler .

A 2020 third-round pick out of Alabama with New England, the 29-year old arrives fresh off a Super Bowl appearance with the Patriots. Jennings will be in the mix with Tyree Wilson and Chris Rumph II for the third spot in the Saints' edge rusher rotation behind Carl Granderson and Chase Young. He's racked up 217 combined tackles across five seasons but just 7.

5 sacks and 25 quarterback hits, so he'll need to find an extra gear to stand out at training camp. His utility on special teams -- 583 combined snaps between the kickoff, punt, and field goal units -- could give him an edge when it comes down to roster cuts in September. What does this mean for Cameron Jordan?

Adding Wilson and Jennings in back-to-back days suggests he may be on the way out the door. There's suddenly a logjam at the position and while you wouldn't let those guys keep you from bringing him back, the situation may not be what Jordan is looking for. We'll keep an eye out for movement on that front in the days ahead.
