The New Orleans Saints grabbed veteran pass rusher Jason Pierre-Paul during their bye week. His stint with the team did not last long, though.
According to multiple sources and JPP himself, the defensive end is joining the Miami Dolphins. They signed him off the Saints' practice squad.
New Orleans' pass rush has been among the worst in the NFC. Now, their depth takes another hit.
Not to mention, Cameron Jordan left the Saints' Week 12 game against the Atlanta Falcons with an injury. It's unclear if he will miss any time, though. JPP played just one game with the Saints.
Pierre-Paul posted a 'thank you' message for New Orleans and announced the move on his Instagram.
The Dolphins needed to make a move after losing Jaelen Phillips to a season-ending achilles injury. Pierre-Paul reverted back to the Saints practice squad after Sunday's game, and now, he's joining the Dolphins' 53-man roster.
The Saints now have Carl Granderson, Tanoh Kpassagnon, and Isaiah Foskey as the other pass rushers on the roster besides Jordan. They need to add another veteran this week.
