Saints sign Vincent Brown after tryout

The New Orleans Saints signed wide receiver Vincent Brown.

What It Means:

Brown continues to hang around and earned the contract after a workout, which also included Hakeem Nicks, for the Saints last week. Brown, 27, has caught 13 balls across eight games the past two seasons. The Saints were looking for a veteran mentor at receiver after releasing Marques Colston. Brown is an extreme long shot to make much of an impact if he makes the team.

2013 was Brown's most recent season in which he received at least 50 targets. That year, he had a very mediocre 0.59 Reception Net Expected Points per target.
