The Saints have signed free agent running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire, the team announced. Edwards-Helaire will start on the team’s practice squad, which also gives him flexibility to go elsewhere if a contender has a running back injury.
The team cut defensive tackle Kendal Vickers from the practice squad in a corresponding move.
The Chiefs cut Edwards-Helaire earlier this week, and he cleared waivers.
The Saints have Alvin Kamara, Jamaal Williams, Kendre Miller and Jordan Mims on the active roster at the position.
The Chiefs made Edwards-Helaire a first-round draft pick in 2020, and he won two Super Bowl rings with the team. His production, though, declined every year, and this season he wasn’t active for a single regular-season game.
Edwards-Helaire last played a game in the Super Bowl when he saw action on four snaps.
