All NFL rosters had to be cut to 53 players by Tuesday, August 30. These cuts always hurt and put good players out of a job, even temporarily. NFL teams try to fill up their practice squad with players familiar to the team and target these cut players. In recent history, issues with injuries and virus protocol have meant teams are relying on practice squad players more than normal. The Saints have made 15 signings so far, according to Nick Underhill. These are the 2022 New Orleans Saints practice squad signees.
