The Saints have released 33-year old DT Rod Coleman who appears to be at the end of the line of his NFL career.  He last played in a regular season game during the 2007 season with the Falcons.  Coleman has played in 109 games (70 starts) in his NFL career and he has made 248 tackles, has 58.5 sacks, defensed 26 passes and he has 1 interception.  The Saints are better off without Coleman.
