Kwon Alexander Visits With Saints
3 years agoFree-agent linebacker Kwon Alexander (Achilles), who has now been cleared from his injury and is ready for football drills, visited with the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday, according to a source. Other teams are interested in signing him, too, but a reunion with the Saints is a possibility. Alexander began last season with the San Francisco 49ers, but he spent the final seven games of 2020 in New Orleans after a trade. He'll turn just 27 in two weeks and was a Pro Bowler in 2017 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, when he recorded 97 tackles (70 solo), three interceptions and four passes defensed in 12 starts. With a young core at linebacker already, Alexander would be providing experienced depth if he were to return to the Saints.
