4 ex-Saints made Sean Payton’s first 53-man roster with Broncos

Broncos coach Sean Payton has four ex-Saints on his 53-man roster in Denver.

Sean Payton finalized his first 53-man roster with the Denver Broncos earlier this week and it includes four of his former players from the coach’s time with the New Orleans Saints.

Payton kept three players on offense — tight ends Adam Trautman and Chris Manhertz and fullback Michael Burton. On special teams, Payton acquired kicker Wil Lutz in a trade with New Orleans on the day of roster cuts.

The Broncos also signed four former Saints to their practice squad, including two players who spent time with Payton in New Orleans. Here’s a quick look at the former Saints who have reunited with Payton in Denver.
