Saints sign tight end Coby Fleener to 5-year contract (Yahoo Sports)

The New Orleans Saints and former Indianapolis Colts tight end Coby Fleener agreed to the terms of a five-year contract on Wednesday, hours after the NFL's free agency period began. The addition of Fleener, a four-year veteran who caught 54 passes for 491 yards and three touchdowns last season, helps fill a void left by tight end Ben Watson's departure for Baltimore. Watson was New Orleans' top receiving tight end last season, catching 74 passes for 825 yards and six touchdowns, which set or matched career highs in all three categories.
