Saints sign former Eagles receiver/kick returner Josh Huff

The New Orleans Saints signed wide receiver/kick returner Josh Huff to a reserve/futures contract on Friday, a source told ESPN’s Field Yates. Huff was a third-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2014.

Huff spent three seasons with the Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers before being released September and not catching on with another team during the 2017 season. The 5-foot-11, 206-pounder has a total of 51 catches for 523 yards and four touchdowns in his career. He also has two kickoff return touchdowns.

Huff spent his first two and a half seasons in Philadelphia but was released in November 2016 after being arrested in New Jersey on charges of possessing an unloaded handgun without a permit, DUI and possession of a small amount of marijuana.
