Prince Amukamara, Noah Spence among Saints' first roster cuts
The New Orleans Saints held a walkthrough practice session on Sunday after flying home from Saturday’s preseason game with the Baltimore Ravens, and though they aren’t required to trim their roster down until Tuesday they’ve already made some personnel decisions.
One of the players waived on Sunday was veteran cornerback Prince Amukamara, per ESPN’s Mike Triplett. The 2011 New York Giants first-round draft pick was signed early in training camp following a group tryout. Amukamara gave a good effort but it was clear late in the exhibition game that he lacked the athleticism to compete with younger competition.
