Right. Its called "Big Nickel. Traditional nickel has 4 Linemen with 2 LBs, 3 CBs and 2 safeties. Instead of having 3 CBs you have 3 safeties in the Big nickel... one of which can cover.
The Saints have been using it for a while especially since CJ Gardner-Johnson was drafted.
Sage Ryan may serve as the "slot safety" since he has decent coverage skills.
