Free-agent wide receiver Antonio Brown "impressed" the Saints in his workout with the team on Friday, but no deal is "imminent," according to the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Brown did not drop a pass in Friday's workout with New Orleans, per Rapoport. But while Brown shined on the field, concerns over a possible suspension have paused potential talks between the Saints and Brown's agent Drew Rosenhaus.
The former Steelers receiver is reportedly likely to be put on the Commissioner's Exempt List if he signs with a team this season. The move by the league office would make it "very very unlikely," for Brown to play this season, per Rapoport.
