Hood recorded one tackle (one solo) and a sack in the Saints' 16-13 loss to the Dolphins in Thursday's preseason finale.

EDGE Analysis

Hood has played for four different teams in his 10-year career, most recently appearing in 13 contests with Washington and Miami last season. He has a chance to find a new home on a title contender if he makes the final 53-man roster.

Hood signed a contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hood figures to provide the Saints with defensive line depth and veteran experience. The 10-year veteran appeared in 13 games between the Dolphins and Redskins in 2018, compiling nine tackles (four solo). Hood will work to earn a reserve role in New Orleans and isn't a lock to make the 53-man roster.

Hood (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hood has been dealing with the hamstring issue for the last couple weeks and was a limited participant at practice this week. Rookie Kendrick Norton was signed last week and brings added depth to defensive tackle should Hood be unable to suit up Sunday.

Hood is questionable to return to Sunday's game with a hamstring injury, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

The extent of Hood's injury is still unknown but leaves the Dolphins with just three healthy defensive tackles for the remainder of Sunday's game. Hood's status should become more clear following Sunday's final outcome.

Hood (hamstring) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

Hood left last week's game against the Vikings early due to his injury and missed some practice time during the week. Barring any setback he'll figure to see his typical role as a backup along the defensive line.

Hood (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Hood exited Sunday's loss to the Vikings after sustaining a hamstring injury, and continues to manage his recovery. If the rotational defensive tackle is unable to suit up against the Jaguars in Week 16, expect Sylvester Williams to see an uptick in snaps.

Hood left Sunday's game against the Vikings with a hamstring injury, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hood was designated questionable to return although it is unknown at this time whether he was cleared to do so. If he can't go in Week 16 against the Jaguars, Sylvester Williams could see increased snaps at defensive tackle.

Hood signed with the Dolphins on Tuesday, Armando Salguero of The Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old defensive tackle saw action with Washington this season before he was released Oct. 16. Miami was dealt an injury to it's defensive line when Vincent Taylor was carted off the field Thursday with a foot injury. If Taylor is unable to play Sunday, Hood could see some snaps at defensive tackle behind Davon Godchaux and Akeem Spence.

Hood was released by the Redskins on Tuesday, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hood has been out of the rotation on the defensive line since Week 2, so this news is not all that surprising. The veteran will now look for a new landing spot. Tim Settle and Caleb Brantley are now the only depth defensive linemen on the Redskins' roster.

Hood (elbow) played 11 snaps in Thursday's preseason game against the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Hood saw the field for the first time since fracturing his elbow in December of 2017, replacing Matt Ioannidis (ankle, knee). Looking ahead, Hood is expected to play a backup role when the regular season begins.
