One former New Orleans Saints player landed a new gig this week, with defensive end Taco Charlton signing onto the San Francisco 49ers’ training camp roster. His arrival coincides with a holdout by 49ers star pass rusher Nick Bosa, bringing the 49ers some added pass-rush potential as they prepare for their preseason games.
Charlton spent last summer with the Saints and initially started the regular season on their practice squad, but he was poached by the Chicago Bears in November. He joined the Jacksonville Jaguars in time for their January playoff run but had to wait through the first week of training camp practices before finding his next opportunity.
