ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the New Orleans Saints have agreed to a one-year deal with free agent safety Justin Evans. Like Marcus Williams and Marcus Maye, Evans was a second round pick in the 2017 NFL draft — picked by Tampa Bay Buccaneers out of Texas A&M at No. 50 overall, just behind Maye (No. 39 to the New York Jets) and Williams (No. 42 to the Saints).
