The New Orleans Saints have signed free agent defensive tackle Shaun Rogers to a one-year deal, the team announced Tuesday.
Financial terms were not immediately available.
Rogers was cut on Feb. 9 after playing sparingly during the 2010 season due to ankle, hip and elbow injuries. He had been scheduled to make $5.5 million in 2011 with a $500,000 roster bonus.
NFL free agency is scheduled to begin March 4 -- pending the outcome of negotiations for a new collective bargaining agreement -- but Rogers is free to sign with a new team now because the Browns terminated his contract early.
