Saints Claim Hendricken Grad Xavier Truss Off Waivers From Broncos
The Saints added speed and versatility by claiming wide receiver Trey Palmer and offensive lineman Xavier Truss off waivers to bolster their 2025 roster depth, addressing recent injuries.
- On Wednesday the New Orleans Saints claimed wide receiver Trey Palmer from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and guard Xavier Truss from the Denver Broncos, as reported by Nick Underhill.
- Facing receiver turnover, the Saints added Trey Palmer after trading for Devaughn Vele and losing Bub Means to injury, while Palmer's role shrank due to Tampa Bay Buccaneers drafting Emeka Egbuka this year.
- A former sixth-round pick, Palmer had 39 catches for 385 yards and three touchdowns as a rookie, running a 4.33-second 40-yard dash at 6-foot-1, 190 pounds.
- Despite interest, the Pittsburgh Steelers failed to land Trey Palmer on waivers, while the Saints cleared room by removing Cedric Wilson and Jack Stoll from the active roster on Wednesday.
- Palmer should compete for reps as a WR three or four behind Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and Brandin Cooks, while Xavier Truss provides developmental depth playing 65 preseason snaps at tackle and guard.
