Saints Make Critical Decision In Releasing 3-Time All-Pro

The difficult decisions aren't done for the New Orleans Saints.

Last week was a hard one for New Orleans, and the league overall. Each team had to trim down their rosters down to 53 players. On the bright side, teams started forming practice squads, which gave new opportunities to some of the hundreds of players who were released.

The decisions aren't done, yet. In fact, they never truly end throughout the season. This roster is going to be updated plenty of times throughout the year and another decision was made on Monday. Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reported that the Saints are releasing three-time All-Pro J.T. Gray.

"Saints released S J.T. Gray, per source," Underhill said.
