Saints make two roster moves before training camp

The New Orleans Saints filed two personnel moves ahead of their 2019 training camp, opening two spots on the 90-man summer roster.

Rookie defensive end Carl Granderson, who was sentenced to serve six months in jail earlier in July, was designated to the reserve/did not report list. So the Saints have not yet released him from his contract after a Wyoming judge sentenced him on charges of sexual battery and unlawful contact. Granderson initially agreed to a plea deal, but the judge threw it out and immediately handed out this sentence.

The other roster move involved rookie wide receiver Emmanuel Butler, who was designated to the non-football injury list.
