Source: LB Kruger to visit Saints after release

METAIRIE, La. -- Paul Kruger already has found at least one interested suitor in the wake of his surprising release by the Cleveland Browns.

The veteran pass-rusher is scheduled to visit the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday, according to a league source.

It's a logical move, considering the Saints made a strong push to sign Kruger back in 2013 before he signed his five-year, $40.5 million contract with the Browns. And Saints coach Sean Payton labeled the pass rush "very concerning" after Friday's preseason loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
