The New Orleans Saints are looking for help on defense as they try to post a successful season. New Orleans is signing defensive end Jonah Williams to the active roster ahead of their Week 2 game, per NFL Network. Williams was previously on the team's practice squad.

“A corresponding move to open a roster spot has not been reported just yet, but the smart bet is for veteran safety Julian Blackmon to go on injured reserve,” John Sigler wrote for USA Today.

Williams played for the team in their first game this season. He posted one assisted tackle. The Saints are 0-1 on the year. New Orleans lost their first game of the campaign, to the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona won by a 20-13 score.

Williams is a veteran who also played for the Los Angeles Rams, Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings
