Player News
Anthony is lining up as a starting linebacker in walkthroughs ahead of Sunday's tilt against the 49ers, John Hendrix reports.
Anthony appears set to slot into New Orleans' starting defense Week 14 with A.J. Klein (knee) and Kiko Alonso (thigh) both inactive. The 2015 first-round pick normally contributes on special teams, but he'll now have a shot to show well on defense.
Anthony signed a contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Anthony was let go by the Saints on Oct. 16, and he now rejoins the team as expected. He figures to reprise his usual role on special teams.
Anthony was released by the Saints on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Anthony latched on with the Saints in late September and exclusively played special teams in his three games with the team. The 2015 first-round pick is expected to rejoin the team within the next few weeks.
Anthony signed a contract with New Orleans on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Two years after leaving New Orleans, Anthony will be returning to play for the team that drafted him 31st overall in 2015. Expected to contribute mostly on special teams, Anthony isn't likely to offer much value in IDP formats, but it's still nice to see him reuniting with special teams coordinator, Darren Rizzi. Barring injury, the 28-year-old linebacker should remain on the waiver wire.
