Like Williams, Snead was an undrafted free agent. He was signed by the Cleveland Browns after the 2014 NFL Draft but was cut in the preseason. After a stint with the Carolina Panthers' practice squad, he was picked up by New Orleans in December 2014.
Williams, originally from Indianapolis, was named second-team All-MAC in both 2014 and 2015. He was also invited to play in the NFL Players' Association Collegiate Bowl, where he led both teams with five receptions and 54 yards.
The Saints have not yet set a date for their training camp, but last year it began in late July.
