It was inevitable that the New Orleans Saints would find some help at defensive tackle after rostering just three of them on their initial 53-man lineup. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the first arrival is Montravius Adams — the former Green Bay Packers third-round pick who spent the summer with the New England Patriots.
Adams, 26, weighs in at 6-foot-4 and 304 pounds with a strong Relative Athletic Score at 7.89. He was credited with creating five pressures in the Patriots’ three preseason games (a total that would have ranked second-best among the Saints defensive tackles this preseason, though let’s remember they only played two exhibition games).
