The Saints agreed to terms on a free-agent contract with former Ravens offensive lineman James Hurst, as first announced by his agent Jack Bechta.
ESPN’s Field Yates reported that it’s a one-year deal between Hurst and the Saints, though pens haven’t yet been put to paper.
It’s a big addition for New Orleans, even if Hurst will serve a four-game suspension for violating the league’s performance-enhancing substances policy.
The 28-year-old has started 44 games for the Ravens going back to 2014, predominately at left guard (19 starts) and left tackle (16)

The Saints offense added a new element late in free agency by signing Ty Montgomery.
News of Montgomery’s deal with the team was first reported by Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football, and confirmed by ESPN’s Mike Triplett.
Montgomery established himself during four years with the Packers, initially slotting in as a wide receiver before splitting time lined up at running back.
He was traded to the Ravens midway through the 2018 season, and turned in an unassuming performance with the Jets in 2019.
Of his 379 career touches, 130 were receptions while 249 were rushing attempts (including four playoff games)

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

The writing was on the wall after the 2020 NFL Draft, but now it’s apparent that Larry Warford will not be in the team’s plans for 2020.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport first reported that the New Orleans Saints cut their starting right guard. The team itself later made the move official.
Warford was nominated to the Pro Bowl As an alternate in each of his first three years in New Orleans, but inconsistent play and poor conditioning in 2019 saw him end up on the chopping block.
This opens the door for either first-round pick Cesar Ruiz or last year’s standout rookie Erik McCoy to start in Warford’s place
