The days after the draft are spent signing undrafted rookies with dreams of playing in the NFL.
That optimism is often accompanied by the news that few members of the roster have seen their own dreams take a shot. That’s the case in New Orleans, where three players have been released to make room for the incoming signees.
The Saints announced Monday that they have released safety Marcus Ball, safety Ty Zimmerman and linebacker Kyle Knox. Ball and Knox each played 12 games for the Saints last season with most of the action coming on special teams.
