Saints waive cornerback Dexter McDougle

Dexter McDougle was brought in as a stop-gap last week by the Saints as they dealt with a rash of injuries. On Tuesday, they waived him. This could mean a few things about what could happen this week.

What Who Dats are hoping is that the release of McDougle is a sign that either or both Marshon Lattimore and Ken Crawley will be ready to go against the Panthers in Week 13. That’s obviously the best case scenario.

Saints waive CB Dexter McDougle. Cardinals sign LB Gabe Martin off the Saints practice squad.

Taking a cornerback off of the roster would certainly seem to point to the Saints getting back some strength and depth at the position.
