John DeShazier: New Orleans was 'best situation' for receiver Cameron Meredith

That’s the belief and hope for New Orleans, courtesy of the Thursday addition of receiver Cameron Meredith, a restricted free agent who signed a two-year deal with the Saints that the Chicago Bears did not match.

Meredith sat out last season after tearing the ACL and partially tearing the MCL, in his left knee. In 2016, he led the Bears with 66 catches for 888 yards, and tied for the team lead with four receiving touchdowns.

“When I got out to the city initially, it was a great vibe, great feeling,” Meredith said of his New Orleans visit.
