The New Orleans Saints continue to bolster their defensive depth. After adding Willie Gay Jr., another linebacker is on the way. This time, it is a special teams specialist.
The Saints are signing former Washington Commanders LB Khaleke Hudson, according to Mike Garafolo.
Hudson totaled 52 tackles during the last four weeks of last season. That number led the NFL during that span.
He recently visited the Pittsburgh Steelers, too.
The veteran LB even laid a big hit on Alvin Kamara during the 2021 season. Click here to watch it.
Hudson was labeled as a safety/linebacker hybrid during his time in Washington. He's a good athlete that totaled 108 tackles in his four years with the Commanders. Most of his impact came on special teams.
At just 26, Hudson still has plenty left in the tank. He joins J.T. Gray as key contributors on special teams for the Saints.
