The New Orleans Saints added free agent defensive tackle Margus Hunt, multiple outlets reported Thursday.
The Houston Chronicle reported that Hunt signed with the team, while ESPN reported the sides have a one-year agreement that is not yet signed.
Hunt, 32, was released by the Indianapolis Colts in March, one year into a two-year, $9 million contract, after losing his starting job.
He finished 2019 with 17 tackles (none for loss), no sacks and no QB hits in 16 games (five starts) after having a career season in 2018 with 30 tackles (13 for loss), five sacks and six QB hits.
A native of Estonia, Hunt was a second-round pick of the Cincinnati Bengals in 2013, but he never appeared in a game for the team before joining the Colts in 2017.
In seven NFL seasons, Hunt has 105 tackles (23 for loss), 7.5 sacks and 20 QB hits in 91 games (25 starts).
