LUKE MCCOWN RUMORS & GOSSIP

Saints Nation: Seneca Wallace to Back Up Drew Brees?

Luke McCown's strangehold on the backup spot behind Drew Brees didn't last long as the Saints signed veteran Seneca Wallace to a one year contract today. Color me surprised. I totally expected Luke McCown to see some serious competition, but I never saw that person being Seneca Wallace. Wallace is 32 and has been in the league 10 years mostly as a backup. He has 31...

The New Orleans Saints signed free agent quarterback Luke McCown and defensive end Kenyon Coleman. McCown was on the Falcons’ roster in 2012, and the 33 year-old Coleman was with the Cowboys for the past couple of years.  Both players give the Saints some much needed depth.       Need NFL Tickets? var _CI = _CI || {}; (function() { var script = document.createElement('...

Saints Nation: Saints Sign QB Luke McCown to Back Up Brees

Ok this isn't an April Fool's joke, I promise. The Saints signed their backup quarterback and it'll be Luke McCown out of Louisiana Tech. Of course that doesn't rule out the team bringing in a young understudy or even a veteran, but at this point I picture McCown being the #2 this year with an undrafted quarterback likely being on the practice squad. That link above...

A lot of times it's not as easy as it looks as some decisions have more than just roster spot implications. We also have to think about the salary cap as it is expected to increased by just $200,000 this season.  ...

Saints sign QB McCown

Quarterback Luke McCown was signed by the Saints, who needed another veteran arm behind Chase Daniel with Drew Brees' prolonged holdout. "He beat us at Tampa Bay. He's has a little bit of mileage in this system because he was under (Jon) Gruden at Tampa Bay, so he kind of knows the same things that Sean (Payton) wants," interim coach Joe Vitt said of McCown after...
