With tackle Terron Armstead suffering an undisclosed injury in Week 12, the New Orleans Saints needed to address depth on the offensive line.
And the requirement to bolster the front five produced a familiar name.
The Saints on Wednesday re-signed offensive tackle Bryce Harris, according to a source familiar with the situation.
Harris will take the roster spot previously filled by cornerback Dexter McDougle, whom the Saints waived Tuesday.
The signing of Harris signals the seventh time he will be with the Saints since May.
The 6-foot-6, 300-pound Harris spent training camp with the Saints before being released on Sept.
