BREAKING: New Orleans Saints release Junior Galette

According to a report, the New Orleans Saints have released linebacker Junior Galette, the team’s leading pass rusher a season ago.

The news may come as a surprise for some, and not so much for others. It’s been a very bumpy offseason for Junior Galette, who was scheduled to meet with the NFL to discuss a prior domestic violence case and some other mishaps, including a video of him allegedly striking a woman with a belt during a beach brawl.

It is uncertain whether or not the team has received news from the NFL about the “confidential” meeting with Galette.
