Not only did the New Orleans Saints sign running back Julius Jones, the team also announced that it has added veteran safety Matt Girodano.
To make room for the new additions, the Saints released veteran kicker John Carney and running back DeShawn Wynn.
Jones will help a running back position that has been troubled by injuries and Giordano can provide some depth for special teams. He played most recently in Atlanta and Green Bay.
The 46-year-old Carney kicked for the Saints the last two weeks and made 5-of-6 field goals but missed a chip shot 29-yarder in Sunday's loss at Arizona that turned the momentum of the game. Apparently, New Orleans is ready to try Garrett Hartley again. Of course, Hartley cost the team a game against the Falcons earlier this season.
The Saints also announced that cornerback Reggie Jones(notes) has been re-signed to the practice squad. Linebacker Harry Coleman was released to make room.

Hey whodatfan,
Why laugh at a guy who just lost his job? Classless.

You obviously don't get it. Or you are being sarcastic.

Carney's still best known for kicks he's missed, not made. Say what you want about Hartley, that will never be the case for him.
Time for the glue factory for Carney, IMO.

OMG we cut Carney? Ouch, I know missing a 29 yarder is bad but, that kick was straighter than those helicopters Hartley had been kicking. Not just in the first few games but dating back to his preseason where many of his extra points were hooked badly and slipped in. I know I'm in the minority wanting Carney but Hartley has been kicking ducks this year. I hope he has his swing back. He scares the hell out of me.

Great move to pick up Giordano!

Lol at the idiots who got pissed when I mentioned that Carney is no better than Hartley when it comes to chip shots.

Almost fast enough to catch someone scoring a touchdown? I'm just trying to understand how this makes him a "special teams animal", as you put it.
