The New Orleans Saints are signing former Minnesota Vikings offensive lineman Nick Easton to a four-year, $24-million deal, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Easton, who mostly played left guard for the Vikings, is expected to play center for New Orleans, Schefter added. He'll be replacing Max Unger, who retired on Saturday.
The 26-year-old missed the 2018 season due to a neck injury.
Easton went undrafted in 2015 before the Baltimore Ravens signed him. He was also briefly a member of the San Francisco 49ers before heading to Minnesota, where he made all 17 of his career starts.
