Saints rumors: Nnamdi Asomugha, Bryant McKinnie on radar


Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha and offensive lineman Bryant McKinnie are on the New Orleans Saints radar, according to Larry Holder of NOLA.com.


Holder notes that the Saints are in the market for a left tackle after losing free agent Jermon Bushrod to the Chicago Bears. The Saints currently have in-house candidate Charles Brown to fill the position, but head coach Sean Payton has said he hopes to add someone to offer competition.

The Baltimore Ravens are known to have interest in retaining McKinnie, who was a reserve for the team for much of last season. After serving a reserve role throughout the regular season, injuries forced McKinnie into action as a starter during the playoffs.

Asomugha has visited with the Saints, as they are one of several teams – also including the San Francisco 49ers – that have expressed interest in the cornerback. Holder reports that the Saints view the choice of whether to come to New Orleans as Asomugha’s to make.
