This is huge: the New Orleans Saints are signing free agent wide receiver Jarivs Landry, the player announced in a video from his official Twitter account. Just 29 years old, Landry has carved out a nice career for himself after turning pro out of LSU — catching 711 passes to gain 7,812 receiving yards and score 39 touchdown receptions in his 126-game career, including the playoffs. Pro Football Network’s Aaron Wilson reports that it is a one-year deal.

And he’s found the perfect landing spot to continue his career. Landry is a specialist working out of the slot, whereas New Orleans’ top draft pick Chris Olave has a strong resume out on the perimeter, and Michael Thomas, well; when healthy, Thomas can line up wherever he wants and beat the man opposing him. It’s a great group for Jameis Winston to work with, not even considering his leading receivers from the 2021 season (Marquez Callaway and Deonte Harty) are also still in the mix.
