The Saints have re-signed Crabtree, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Crabtree rejoins the Saints' depth TE mix in advance of Sunday's game against his former team, the Packers, but he's off the fantasy radar, with Jimmy Graham back in the New Orleans lineup.

Crabtree was released by the Saints on Saturday, NFL.com reports. This could be a sign that Jimmy Graham (shoulder) is headed for active status Sunday against the Lions, but it's possible the Saints just weren't going to activate Crabtree anyway. Regardless, Crabtree is once again without a job, and he likely won't draw much interest as a free agent after catching just four passes in seven games with Tampa Bay last season.

Crabtree signed with the Saints on Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of the Times-Picayune reports. The Saints had a roster spot open up with Jarius Byrd (knee) landing on IR, so they went ahead and added Crabtree for depth at the tight end position. Jimmy Graham's shoulder injury is not believed to be serious, however, and the team also has Ben Watson and Josh Hill, so it's hard to imagine Crabtree taking on a prominent role at any point this season.

Free agent TE Tom Crabtree will work out for the Giants next week. The Giants have one of the league's more unsettled tight end corps, but Crabtree would be a pure reserve. He caught only four passes in seven games for the Bucs last season before landing on injured reserve with a torn biceps.

Buccaneers released TE Tom Crabtree. The writing was on the wall for Crabtree after the Bucs signed Brandon Myers and drafted Austin Seferian-Jenkins. Signed from Green Bay last offseason, Crabtree caught only four passes in seven games with Tampa Bay before being placed on injured reserve with a torn bicep. Crabtree has never developed a pass catching threat and was not a particularly successful blocker in 2013. He may struggle to latch on with another team.

Bucs TE Tom Crabtree has been diagnosed with a torn biceps, and is done for the season. The reserve suffered the injury in Sunday's win over the Lions. Crabtree was viewed as a nice-under-the-radar signing when the Bucs lured him away from Green Bay, but he did little more than block his first year in Tampa Bay. Crabtree finishes 2013 with four catches for 21 yards. He's signed for an affordable $750,000 in 2014, but there's no guarantee he'll be back.

Bucs TE Tom Crabtree (ankle) practiced Monday, and is "hopeful" of making his 2013 debut Sunday. The Bucs' starting tight end has been sidelined since the preseason finale with a high-ankle sprain. Tampa has been forced to mix-and-match with waiver-wire talents in Crabtree's absence. The former Packer will be a low-end TE2 whenever he finally gets back on the field.
