Saints cut cornerback De'Vante Harris

Attached Thumbnails · 08-11-2018, 12:36 PM

De'Vante Harris had a promising start to his New Orleans Saints career as he made the roster as an undrafted rookie in 2016, but two years later, his time with the team has ended.

The Saints waived Harris on Saturday, according to a league source. The move comes just two days after the first preseason game in which Harris had two coverage penalties, an unfortunately fitting end to a two-year Saints career marred by mishaps in games.

The 25-year-old Harris appeared in 10 games as a rookie and 11 games in 2017 before finishing the season on the practice squad.

Harris was a popular guy in the Saints' locker room and particularly close with fellow cornerback Ken Crawley, who also made the team as an undrafted rookie in 2016. However, with the Saints building their depth at cornerback by signing Patrick Robinson and drafting Natrell Jamerson, as well as the improvement from Arthur Maulet this summer, the team decided to move on from Harris.

Make room for someone who has actual potential to play for the 53.

Has the skills. Has good effort. Just not smart in regards to today's NFL game.

I was surprised he lasted this long after his performances to start last season.

Has there been any explanation by the coaches why he started those games last season?!
