BU grad Evans cut by Saints

METAIRIE, La. — The New Orleans Saints have released four-time All-Pro right guard Jahri Evans, who has started for all 10 seasons since the organization drafted him out of Division II Bloomsburg in 2006.

The release of Evans, who helped lead the Saints to a Super Bowl win following the 2009 season, will save the team money by allowing the club to avoid paying upcoming roster bonuses and well as base salaries later in 2016.

Evans was voted first-team All-Pro from the 2009 through 2012 seasons.
