Saints Host Benjamin Watson
7 years agoThe New Orleans Saints hosted free-agent Benjamin Watson for a visit, according to a league source. The Saints lost out in a possibly reunion with tight end Jimmy Graham, and Coby Fleener and Josh Hill currently sit at the top of their depth chart at the position. Watson played for New Orleans from 2013-15, and he caught a career-high 74 passes for 825 yards and six touchdowns in his final season with the team. However, he had just 61 catches and 8.6 yards per reception with Baltimore last year and will be entering his 14th year in the NFL. Watson could be a decent TE2 option in a return to New Orleans, but his upside is limited at this stage in his career.
