Former Indianapolis Colts defensive lineman Margus Hunt has agreed to terms on a deal with the New Orleans Saints.
The Colts released Hunt just before the start of the new league year on March 16. The move saved them $4 million in salary cap space as he entered the final year of the two-year extension he signed before the 2019 season.
Hunt became an expendable asset for the Colts. While he showed some promise working on the interior in 2018, he failed to record a single sack or tackle for loss during the 2019 season.
The Colts wound up trading for DeForest Buckner, signing defensive tackle Sheldon Day and drafting defensive tackle Robert Windsor in the sixth round.
