Saints add return specialist Josh Huff on reserve/future contract

Former Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver/return specialist Josh Huff has agreed to a reserve/future contract with the New Orleans Saints, per Houston Chronicle reporter Aaron Wilson.

Huff spent over two seasons with the Eagles after being drafted by then coach Chip Kelly in the third round with the No. 86 overall pick. He was the teams primary kick returner and a role player at wide receiver. Huff appeared in 34 games with Philadelphia tallying 48 returns for 1,237 yards with two return touchdowns, while catching 48 passes for 482 yards and four scores.

The 5-foot-11 speedster was arrested a few months into the 2016 NFL season and was released shortly thereafter.
