The New Orleans Saints are signing defensive lineman Kentavius Street this afternoon, per multiple reports. Mike Kaye of ProFootballNetwork was the first to report (see below) with NewOrleans.Football reporter Nick Underhill confirming the move. Kentavius was a 4th round pick (pick 128) for the San Francisco 49ers in 2018, however, missed his rookie campaign with a knee injury. Street looked his best last season, putting up the following statline (according to ProFootballReference):
- 17 games played (2 games started)
- 3 sacks, 6 tackles for loss, 7 pressures
- 1 forced fumble, 27 total tackles, and 5 QB hits
This move happens after Street hit free agency with the 49ers not giving him the RFA tender on March 16th.
