The New Orleans Saints didn't need to cut down to 75 players for another week, but the team made a pile of moves Monday, according to the league's transaction wire.

The Saints released quarterback Seneca Wallace, along with veteran wide receivers Steve Breaston and Patrick Crayton. The team also waived cornerback A.J. Davis (injured), wide receiver Jarred Fayson, guard Ricky Henry, linebacker Chase Thomas and cornerback Dion Turner.

The team also placed defensive lineman Kenyon Coleman on injured reserve officially ending his season as Coleman wasn't given the "designated to return" status. Coleman sustained a torn pectorial muscle nearly two weeks ago.

The Saints didn't sign any new players, according to the league transaction wire, so the Saints roster stands at 81. Wide receiver Joe Morgan and linebacker Victor Butler are still on the roster even though both could miss the season with knee injuries. Butler is on the physically-unable-to-perform list, while Morgan remains on the active roster.

No surprises so far.

Breaston and Crayton cuts tell me that they are comfortable with Toon and Stills.

A little suprised about Thomas. Maybe it's more about good news regarding Wilson and JR.
