The Saints reached an agreement on a free-agent contract with former Steelers linebacker Anthony Chickillo, as announced by his representatives at Rosenhaus Sports and ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
While the terms of the deal have not yet been clarified, it is reported to be a one-year deal.
Chickillo appeared in 65 games over five years in Pittsburgh (along with four playoffs appearances), though he started just nine times.
He played as more of an edge rusher than a true coverage linebacker, logging 7.5 sacks and 15 quarterback hits in his time with the Steelers, as well as 11 tackles for loss
