The New Orleans Saints sign punter Chris Hanson
The Saints have signed Chris Hanson to challenge Steve Weatherford for the starting job as punter for the 2007 season. He played in all 16 games last season for the Jacksonville Jaguars and he punted the ball 72 times for 2,920 yards (40.6 avg) with a net avg. of only 33.4 yards per punt. Hanson pinned opponents inside the 20 yard line 20 times in 2006. This is a battle that could go late into Training Camp for the Saints but I think Weatherford will prevail.
