Saints Surprise Cut: 2024 Fifth-Round Receiver Bub Means Waived

In an unexpected move ahead of the NFL's roster deadline, the New Orleans Saints have decided to waive wide receiver Bub Means. Means, who was selected by the Saints in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, is entering his third year in the league.

This decision marks one of the first significant roster cuts for the Saints as they finalize their 53-man roster. The move suggests the team is looking to go in a different direction at the wide receiver position or has found other players who have impressed more during training camp and preseason.
