From NBC Pro Football Talk:

The Saints made several moves involving tight ends on Saturday.

The team announced that they have signed Kevin Rader and Mason Fairchild to the 90-man roster. They waived Jesper Horsted and placed Tommy Hudson on injured reserve as well.

In addition to the tight end moves, the Saints waived wide receiver Jermaine Jackson with an injury designation.

Rader has appeared in 35 games and made four starts for the Steelers and Titans. He has made three catches for 14 yards and recorded 19 special teams tackles in those appearances.

Fairchild was undrafted out of Kansas this year. He caught 82 passes for 1,111 yards and ten touchdowns while with the Jayhawks.

@mayjay yeah!

I think he has a chance of making the final roster, he’s a great guy too

Well, I never saw any news about it but Fairchild was released just a few days after he was signed by N.O. on Aug. 3rd.

Not to worry! He was re-signed by N.O. again today!

@mayjay crazy! He's really smart too! He's some type of engineer major.

Mase is a great dude. I don’t think he has a future in football but he’s going to be successful in life.

Fairchild cut by N.O. Unsure about waivers.

Bummer

Per CBS Sports, “ If the tight end clears waivers, his most likely next move will be joining the practice squad with New Orleans.”

Per sources, he’s helping coach Andale tonight

@FarmerJayhawk that’s cool
