Saints to sign DB Lonnie Johnson to a one-year deal

The New Orleans Saints make their first move in the secondary this offseason by signing cornerback/safety Lonnie Johnson to a one-year deal.

FA DB Lonnie Johnson Jr. is signing a one-year deal with the #Saints, sources tell @theScore.

In seven starts for the #Texans in 2021, Johnson had 3 INTs and 6 PBUs. The versatile CB/Safety is a former 2nd-round pick, who I’m told had three different suitors in free agency. pic.twitter.com/gdmrKu0CqY— Jordan Schultz (@Schultz_Report) March 20, 2023

Johnson spent his first three years with the Houston Texans, while making stops in Kansas City and Tennessee the past couple of seasons.
