In a bit more surprising move, the Saints have re-signed Chris Reis, the Saints backup safety and special teams ace. Reis is coming off injured reserve after suffering a hamstring injury. The news comes from nola.com:
Transactions to date: "Lance Moore, Jermon Bushrod, Scott Shanle, Leigh Torrence, Chris Reis and Jo-Lonn Dunbar have all agreed to terms on new contracts."
The Saints need all the safeties they can get right now. Not including undrafted free agents, Malcolm Jenkins was the only safety the Saints had on the roster this morning.
Reis staying helps the Saints with their safety depth and particularly their special teams. After all, he did make a special play on special teams.
