Champions League semi for the ages as holders PSG beat Bayern 5-4
In a thrilling Champions League semi-final, PSG beats Bayern 5-4 despite a late comeback.
The New Orleans Saints have signed former Cleveland Browns cornerback Martin Emerson after his visit. Emerson, a promising young player, aims to rebound after a challenging couple of seasons.
The New Orleans Saints are looking to add some help in the defensive back field, as they're signing former Cleveland Browns cornerback Martin Emerson after a visit on Tuesday, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Emerson, a third-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, made an immediate impact early in his career while lining up opposite Pro Bowler Denzel Ward. In his first season as a starter, Emerson excelled on the outside, recording 15 pass breakups -- tied for fifth-most in the league, while ranking sixth in forced incompletions and allowing just a 53.9% completion rate on targets his way. He followed that up with another strong campaign in 2023, totaling 14 pass breakups and four interceptions, continuing to establish himself as a reliable presence on the boundary. Emerson lined up outside on 2,238 of his career 2,507 snaps in Cleveland, moving into the slot just 55 times.
After a down year in 2024 and a lost 2025 season due to a torn Achilles, Emerson is now hoping to rebound and regain the form that made him one of the league’s more promising young corners. At 6-foot-2 and 201 pounds, Emerson brings ideal size and physicality to the position, along with intriguing upside. Still just 25 years old, if healthy, he represents a low-risk, high-reward option for New Orleans and someone who could compete for a significant role in the Saints’ secondary.
