Marques Colston Released by Saints: Latest Details, Comments and Reaction

Wide receiver Marques Colston has been released by the New Orleans Saints on Monday after a decade with the organization that selected him in the seventh round of the 2006 draft.

Joel A. Erickson of The Advocate noted the wideout was released with a failed physical designation, while Katherine Terrell of NOLA.com confirmed the news.

Colston was a question mark coming into the offseason for the Saints. He's coming off two straight down seasons by his previously high standards in the team's pass-happy offense. He caught just 45 passes for 520 yards and four touchdowns in 2015.
