The New Orleans Saints are expected to release Marques Colston in the coming days.

The move would clear $3.2 million in cap space for the Saints though there would still be $2.7 million in dead money.

Colston caught 45 passes for 520 yards in 13 games in 2015.

Drew Brees had $10.85 million of his $20 million salary for the 2016 season guaranteed effective on Wednesday.

^{Brees is almost certain to return to the New Orleans Saints.}

The New Orleans Saints have released Jahri Evans.

Evans has been a 10-year starter and a four-time first-team All-Pro selection. Evans signed a seven-year, $56.7 million deal in 2010.

The Saints will save $3.1 million against the cap by releasing Evans, who is considered one of the best players in franchise history.
