Misses cut
Published: 2024-08-27
Abram was released by the Saints on Tuesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
After being drafted by the Raiders in 2019, Abram has spent the last three seasons in Green Bay, Seattle and New Orleans. The journeyman was looking to return to the Big Easy, but he ultimately failed to make it through final roster cuts. It remains to be seen what opportunity will arise next for the veteran safety.

Staying with New Orleans
Published: 2024-03-20
Abram has agreed to a contract to remain with the Saints, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
In nine regular-season games with the Saints in 2023, the 2019 first-rounder recorded 26 tackles and a pick. By bringing back the 27-year-old, New Orleans' secondary maintains some needed depth following the offseason departures of Marcus Maye, Isaac Yiadom and Lonnie Johnson.
Plays nine games for Saints
Published: 2024-01-18
Abram finished the 2023 regular season with 26 tackles and one interception in nine appearances.
Abram bounced back and forth between New Orleans' practice squad and active roster. While the majority of his playing time came on special teams this season, the 2019 first-round pick saw significant snaps on defense in four of his nine appearances, including when he played every defensive snap over the final two weeks of the regular season. Abram initially joined the Saints on a one-year deal in March, and he is set to become an unrestricted free agent this coming offseason.
Responsbile for two turnovers
Published: 2024-01-01
Abram had five solo tackles, one pass defended, one interception and one forced fumble in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Buccaneers.
Both of Abram's turnovers occurred in the second half of Sunday's win. He jarred the ball out of Rachaad White's hands in the third quarter that led to a Saints' field goal seven plays later. Two possessions later, Abram picked off Baker Mayfield on a pass intended for David Moore. It was Abram's first start at strong safety since being signed to the active roster Nov. 30, and he played all 50 defensive snaps in Sunday's victory.
Gets promotion
Published: 2023-11-30
Abram signed with the Saints' 53-man roster from their practice squad, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Abram had previously been elevated three times this season by New Orleans, although he hasn't suited up since Week 5 against the Patriots. With Marcus Maye (shoulder) questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, the Saints have opted to bring Abram back to their active roster to strengthen their depth in the secondary.
Back to practice squad
Published: 2023-10-02
Abram reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday.
Abram was elevated to the active roster with Jordan Howden (finger) ruled out. Abram took advantage of his second callup Sunday against the Buccaneers when he registered five tackles (one solo) while playing 52 defensive snaps and seven snaps on special teams. The 2019 first-round pick out of Mississippi State could be called up once more for Week 5 against the Patriots if Howden is unable to suit up.
Cut by New Orleans
Published: 2023-08-29
Abram was released by the Saints on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Abram signed with New Orleans this offseason after stints with the Raiders, Packers and Seahawks. The 2019 first-round pick has appeared in 43 games throughout his four-year career, racking up 267 tackles, 14 pass breakups and three interceptions. If the 26-year-old clears waivers, the Saints are expected to add him to their practice squad.
Heading to New Orleans
Published: 2023-03-22
Abram agreed to a contract with the Saints and is slated to sign with the team Wednesday following a physical, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
A first-round selection of the Raiders in the 2019 NFL Draft, Abram was cut loose by Las Vegas in November of last season and caught on with Green Bay and Seattle before the end of the campaign. Neither club sought to bring Abram back in free agency, but the veteran safety will get an opportunity to get his career back on track in New Orleans, where he'll likely fill a depth role in the secondary.
