Simmie Cobbs: Let go by Saints
Cobbs was waived by the Saints on Friday, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Cobbs was considered on the final 53-man roster bubble, but he ultimately did not make the cut. An undrafted rookie in 2018, he spent time on the Saints' practice squad, and he figures to do so again assuming he does not find a new destination. He led the team in both targets and receptions in their final preseason game against the Dolphins.

Saints' Simmie Cobbs: Leads Saints in catches
Cobbs caught six of seven targets for 42 yards in Thursday's preseason loss to the Dolphins.
The receptions and targets both led the team on the night, although Cobbs' 6.0 yards per target was pedestrian at best. An undrafted rookie free agent out of Indiana last year, he has the size to be a red-zone and possession option for Drew Brees -- provided he did enough this preseason to claim a depth WR spot on the 53-man roster.

Simmie Cobbs: Placed on practice squad
Cobbs has a spot on Washington's practice squad, Les Carpenter of The Washington Post reports.
The undrafted rookie out of Indiana caught seven passes for 109 yards and a touchdown during the preseason, coming up just a bit short in a roster battle with Trey Quinn and Cam Sims. The Redskins will let Cobbs develop on their practice squad, with potential for a midseason call-up if the team struggles to stay healthy at wide receiver.
