New Orleans Saints to fill out their practice squad

A little less than 24 hours after getting their roster down to 53 players -- and, in the process, exposing some of their depth to the waiver wire -- the New Orleans Saints can begin adding players to the practice squad as of noon Sunday (Sept. 2).

Some rules regarding the practice squad: The Saints can keep up to 11 players (only if they keep Alex Jenkins through the International Player Pathway initiative, as they did a year ago, otherwise the limit is 10). Of those players, a maximum of four spots can be filled by players with two or more years of NFL experience.
