This was expected after a rough preseason game: the New Orleans Saints waived veteran wide receiver Bryan Edwards before Tuesday’s practice session, not long after a rough outing from him in their preseason game with the Los Angeles Chargers. News of Edwards’ release was reported on the daily NFL transactions wire.
Edwards was twice fouled for illegal pick plays that wiped out would-be touchdown receptions by wideouts Shaq Davis and Jontre Kirklin, leading to a short 33-yard field goal on the possession. That’s inexcusable for someone with Edwards’ NFL experience.
