The New Orleans Saints locked up one of their veteran safeties on the first day of free agency Friday, but not the one that everyone’s been wondering about.
The Super Bowl champs re-signed backup Pierson Prioleau to a one-year deal, their first signing of the 2010 season, while fellow safety Darren Sharper and outside linebacker Scott Fujita remain unsigned on the open market.
The Saints have had positive discussions with both Sharper and Fujita, according to league sources. But both veteran starters have also been shopping elsewhere.
