DiNucci made the announcement on the X platform formerly known as Twitter on Tuesday morning. The journeyman former XFL quarterback was released by the Bills in August after completing 14 of 20 preseason passes for 96 yards and a touchdown. DiNucci will likely serve as the Saints’ emergency third QB with Derek Carr out for the season.

DiNucci completed 14 of his 20 preseason passes for 96 yards and a touchdown after signing with the Bills in July. It looks like Mitchell Trubisky will serve as Josh Allen’s backup this season. The journeyman DiNucci is likely to catch on with another team seeking quarterback depth.

DiNucci spent last season on the Broncos practice squad and hasn’t played a regular-season snap since 2020. The veteran backup joins a Bills team that lost Shane Buechele to a neck injury in their first preseason game and will likely see some snaps in the team’s upcoming preseason game against the Steelers.

DiNucci, a former XFL star, has bounced on and off the Broncos roster over the past year and a half. He’s completed 23 of 43 NFL passes for 219 scoreless yards over three regular season games. The Broncos will roll with first-rounder Bo Nix, Jarrett Stidham, and Jets castoff Zach Wilson in summer practices. He could end up on Denver’s practice squad this summer.
