The New Orleans Saints continued to stock up on former Ohio State football players.
Former Ohio State defensive end Noah Spence, who finished last season with the Saints after being waived by the Washington Redskins, re-signed with the team on Monday, according to multiple reports.

Spence, who transferred to Eastern Kentucky after being dismissed by Ohio State in 2014, is going into his fifth year in the NFL. He did not make any game appearances for the Saints after being signed last December, but he'll now have a chance to climb the depth chart in pursuit of a bigger role in 2020.
The Saints' roster currently includes three players who both started and finished their careers with the Buckeyes: Marshon Lattimore, Michael Thomas and Malcolm Jenkins. Eli Apple left to sign with the Las Vegas Raiders, while Vonn Bell and Ted Ginn Jr. remain on the market as unrestricted free agents.
