Saints roster cuts 2019: see the full list here

NEW ORLEANS — The New Orleans Saints made the final 20 transactions Saturday before the 3 p.m. Central time deadline to get the roster down to 53 players.

The first move Saturday was a bit unexpected with the release of core special teams player Chris Banjo. He played two-plus seasons with the team and had more than 600 snaps on special teams over his two full seasons in New Orleans. 

Among Friday cuts were eight-year veteran running back Jacquizz Rodgers and LSU products Travin Dural and Cyril Grayson Jr., both wideouts.
