Clyde Edwards-Helaire: Scooped up by Saints

Edwards-Helaire agreed to a contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

The report doesn't specify whether Edwards-Helaire will be joining the Saints' active roster or signing with the team's practice squad. Either way, the former Chiefs running back could contribute for the stretch run on a Saints team that could be without lead back Alvin Kamara (groin) for Monday's game against the Packers. Edwards-Helaire didn't appear in a game for the Chiefs during the 2024 season prior to being waived Monday.
