Saints waived WR Brandin Cooks.

Per NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill, Cooks agreed to a pay cut in a mutual parting of ways. Cooks will be subject to waivers. Assuming no one claims him, the veteran wideout will be free to sign wherever he wants. His release allows him to join a contender and gives the Saints some money back. Cooks has 19 catches for 165 yards this year. He will be a depth option no matter where he signs.
