Let’s be blatantly honest for a second. As a Saints fan, it’s hard to mention the name Jairus Byrd and not start throwing up a little inside your mouth. After shelling out $54 million for the widely considered top free agent prize of 2014, how could you not have some buyer’s remorse right now for a player that’s only appeared in just 17 of 32 games?
In 2015, Byrd appeared in 825 snaps (or 76 percent) for the New Orleans Saints defense. He finished with 52 total tackles, a sack, interception, forced fumble, and fumble recovery.
