The Facts: Washington is signing one-year deal with the Saints, a source tells ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Diehards Line: Washington, a former second-round pick with the Steelers is now a new target for Derek Carr. Washington signed a one-year contract with the Cowboys as a free agent last offseason after spending the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He suffered a Lisfranc injury in August and didn't return until late in the season only to be released shortly after his return. In fact, Washington played 15 offensive snaps and 13 on special teams in two games after returning from injured reserve Dec. 10, and he dropped the only pass thrown his way. ... Now he'll hope a fresh start in New Orleans can jumpstart his career.
