The Saints are reportedly adding a third kicker to the roster.

According to Kristian Garic of WWL-AM in New Orleans, the Saints have reached a deal with second-year kicker Zach Hocker, who tried out at the club’s rookie minicamp this weekend.

A seventh-round pick of Washington in 2014, Hocker was waived at the end of his first preseason. He was most recently with the Dolphins. An Arkansas product, Hocker joins Shayne Graham and Dustin Hopkins at kicker.

That’s not it for Saints roster changes. According to the New Orleans Advocate, the club has signed two undrafted free agents: wide receiver Kyle Prater (Northwestern) and offensive lineman Antonio Johnson (North Texas). The club has also waived undrafted rookie linebacker Stephon Sanders (SMU), per the Advocate.
