Saints Expected to Sign Veteran Cornerback Michael Davis, Per Report

Roster placement remains unconfirmed, signaling a depth move for an injury‑thinned secondary.

Overview

  • Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports reported Tuesday that New Orleans plans to add the former Chargers and Commanders defender.
  • It is not yet clear whether Michael Davis will join the 53-man roster or begin on the practice squad.
  • The move would reunite Davis with defensive coordinator Brandon Staley, under whom he had a productive run in Los Angeles.
  • Injuries have stretched the Saints’ secondary, with Isaac Yiadom dealing with a hamstring issue and Justin Reid in the concussion protocol.
  • Davis’ addition would not rule out pursuing Asante Samuel Jr., whose availability hinges on a pending medical recheck after spinal fusion surgery.
