When the New Orleans Saints cut Cortland Finnegan on Tuesday afternoon, they suddenly had just one cornerback — Delvin Breaux — with regular-season experience.

That frightful thought didn't last long, though, as the Saints signed veteran cornerback Sterling Moore to the 53-man roster Tuesday evening, according to his agent Andy Simms. It's a one-year deal.
Moore, 26, played 16 games with nine starts for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last season and had 45 tackles, six passes defensed, one interception and three forced fumbles. He joined the Buffalo Bills as a free agent, but was among the team's final cuts.



The signing, which won't be official until Wednesday, brings the Saints roster count back to 53 after a few other moves Tuesday. The Saints cut Finnegan and kicker Kai Forbath, and they signed rookie kicker Wil Lutz.
