The Saints are bringing back a familiar face.
After working out for New Orleans earlier Thursday, linebacker Jo-Lonn Dunbar has agreed to return to the Saints, according to a source.
Dunbar was signed by the Saints as an undrafted free agent in 2008 and remained with the team through 2011. He hooked on with St. Louis for the 2012 season and bounced on and off the Rams’ roster until being released earlier this week.
Dunbar has not been active for any games this season. He finished with 36 tackles last season.
In St. Louis, Dunbar played both strongside and weakside linebacker, which gives him a little bit of versatility.
