According to reports, the New Orleans Saints are releasing defensive tackle Malcom Brown. The move is another cost-cutting maneuver to get under the salary cap by the start of free agency on March 17th.
Brown would have cost nearly $6.5 million against the salary cap in 2021, the last year of his contract. His release creates $4.94 million in cap for New Orleans. There were previous reports that the Saints were trying to trade the talented defensive lineman, but will now release him after those attempts were unsuccessful.
