The New Orleans Saints have re-signed veteran defensive end Jonah Williams to their practice squad. This decision comes one week after he was signed and then waived due to a medical issue, as noted by head coach Kellen Moore. Cameron Jordan, the team’s all-time sacks leader, continues to recover from a hamstring injury and may not be ready for the upcoming game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Saints’ pass rush struggled in their season opener against the Detroit Lions, prompting the move to bring back Williams, who had previously spent the 2025 season with New Orleans.
