The Saints are interested in hammering out a deal that would bring receiver Robert Meachem back to New Orleans for 2014, NFL sources confirmed Saturday.
The Saints and Meachem’s camp had broached the topic of a new contract by Friday, one of the sources said. Of course, what will ultimately determine whether Meachem rejoins the Black and Gold is if he and the team can agree on how much he’s worth.
Meachem — due to become an unrestricted free agent March 11 — had only 16 receptions for New Orleans in 2013.
