The New Orleans Saints signed wide receiver Cameron Meredith to an offer sheet worth a reported $9.6 million over two years after the Chicago Bears declined to match the offer for the restricted free agent.
Meredith, 25, missed the entire 2017 season with tears in his anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament. Meredith is a likely candidate for the No. 3 receiver alongside Michael Thomas and Ted Ginn Jr. Here are 7 things to know about the newest member of the Saints. He went to Illinois State as a quarterback Meredith was a high school quarterback and was not highly recruited. He committed to Illinois State and eventually switched to receiver and had an impressive senior season with 66 catches for 1,061 yards and nine touchdowns. That made him one of only six players in that school’s history to tally more than 1,000 yards in a season. He went undrafted out of Illionis State Meredith wasn’t invited to the NFL Scouting Combine but impressed scouts at Northwestern’s Pro Day. He went undrafted in 2015 and signed with the Bears as an undrafted free agent.
