SAINTS TRANSACTIONS
JULY 29, 2024
TERMINATIONS VIA WAIVER SYSTEM
NEW ORLEANS
- Mark Evans II (Arkansas-PIne Bluff)
"The New Orleans Saints waived former Arkansas-Pine Bluff and All-SWAC offensive lineman Mark Evans II. He spent the previous season on the Saints' practice squad, hoping for a chance to compete for the open left guard position. During Saturday's training camp practice, a holding penalty against Evans negated a big play for the New Orleans offense. He did not participate during some offseason workouts, losing valuable reps."
