According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter , the New England Patriots completed a trade for second-year return specialist/receiver Jalen Saunders from the New Orleans Saints for a conditional draft pick.
Saunders, who played college football at Oklahoma for two seasons, tied a school record with 15 catches for 181 yards and set a school record with eight catches in a quarter in one game versus Notre Dame.
He was drafted in the fourth round by the New York Jets in 2014, but was released by the Jets in September and connected with the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks practice squads before being signed to the New Orleans Saints 53-man roster in November that season.
