NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The New Orleans Saints have signed veteran cornerback Jerametrius Butler and center Marquay Love.
The team announced the roster moves on Tuesday, two days after the free agents took part in the team's three-day minicamp on a tryout basis.
The Saints needed an additional defensive back during minicamp because Mike McKenzie and Jason David, the starting cornerbacks in 2007, were limited by injuries during practice.
McKenzie is recovering form reconstructive knee surgery at the end of last season while David had a strained groin.
In another roster move, the Saints waived linebacker Chris Graham, who joined the squad as a rookie free agent last month.
