A couple of weeks after the 2019 NFL Draft, we started doing profiles of all 90 players on the Saints 90-man roster. In early May, it looked a little different than it does now. We started with the receivers and that included the undrafted rookies who had been brought in as free agents: Lil’Jordan Humphrey, Deonte Harris and Emmanuel Butler.
Since his signing, there has been a low hum regarding Emmanuel Butler from those in the know. His story is like a lot of heartbreaking ones you hear every year of players whose life plans were derailed because of injury.
