The New Orleans Saints added another former Ohio State football player to their roster, according to a source.
NFL Network first reported Tuesday (May 1) that quarterback J.T. Barrett has a three-year contract with the team, putting him on the roster with Drew Brees and backups Taysom Hill and Tom Savage. The Saints originally lined up Barrett for a rookie minicamp tryout, according to Ohio State. But the Saints appear to have secured him for longer than a weekend by signing him to a multi-year contract. The Saints in recent seasons added wide receiver Michael Thomas, cornerback Marshon Lattimore and safety Vonn Bell from Ohio State through the draft. Barrett will arrive as an undrafted free agent. He will not be the only newcomer at quarterback when the rookie minicamp opens next weekend. Brandon Silvers, the former Troy quarterback who beat LSU last fall, said Monday he planned to also be at the rookie minicamp. In three-plus seasons as a starter, Barrett threw for 9,434 yards and had 104 touchdowns compared to 30 interceptions. He also ran for 3,263 yards and 43 touchdowns. Link Back to NOLA |

No, the FO just wanted to hear JP grind his teeth with another Buckeye on the team.
Seriously, I think they're bringing him in to groom him as their QB coach. BTW, do most UDFAs get three year contracts? |

It looks like he's a smart kid. If so then the sky is the limit.
