Anthony is lining up as a starting linebacker in walkthroughs ahead of Sunday's tilt against the 49ers, John Hendrix reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony appears set to slot into New Orleans' starting defense Week 14 with A.J. Klein (knee) and Kiko Alonso (thigh) both inactive. The 2015 first-round pick normally contributes on special teams, but he'll now have a shot to show well on defense.

Anthony signed a contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony was let go by the Saints on Oct. 16, and he now rejoins the team as expected. He figures to reprise his usual role on special teams.

Anthony was released by the Saints on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony latched on with the Saints in late September and exclusively played special teams in his three games with the team. The 2015 first-round pick is expected to rejoin the team within the next few weeks.

Anthony signed a contract with New Orleans on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Two years after leaving New Orleans, Anthony will be returning to play for the team that drafted him 31st overall in 2015. Expected to contribute mostly on special teams, Anthony isn't likely to offer much value in IDP formats, but it's still nice to see him reuniting with special teams coordinator, Darren Rizzi. Barring injury, the 28-year-old linebacker should remain on the waiver wire.

Anthony signed with the Jets on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony, a former first-rounder, spent his first three seasons with the Saints before playing his last two with the Dolphins. He started training camp with the Falcons before ultimately being released on Monday. He will now look to make an impression with the Jets.

Anthony was released by the Falcons on Monday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony suited up for Atlanta's first three preseason games, racking up five tackles, but was ultimately unable to stick to the roster. The 2015 first-round pick will look to latch on in a depth capacity elsewhere in the league.

Anthony signed a contract with the Falcons on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony projects to contribute on special teams and provide Atlanta with linebacker depth. The 2015 first-round pick played 16 games with the Dolphins last season, recording eight tackles. He also played 353 snaps on special teams.

Anthony was replaced at starting outside linebacker by rookie Jerome Baker at Sunday's practice, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony was essentially a non-factor in limited snaps during the Dolphins' preseason opener against the Buccaneers, while the team has elected to give their third-round rookie (Baker) a chance at securing a starting job at outside linebacker. Anthony exhibits a larger frame than Baker, but the latter has shown playmaking ability and speed in coverage situations.

Anthony's fifth-year option for the 2019 season was declined by the Dolphins on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony, who was dealt to the Dolphins from the Saints early on in 2017, ended up playing in just eight games for Miami due to a couple of different injuries. As a result, he finished the year with just 15 total tackles. With Anthony potentially commanding $9.2 million in 2019 if his fifth-year option was picked up, the Dolphins understandably declined it, especially considering it would have been fully guaranteed for injury. That puts Anthony into a contract year, so he'll likely do everything he can to stay healthy and improve across the board as a defender.

Anthony (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony was able to play in Week 11's game against the Bucs, but he was limited to only 21 total snaps. He's in line to play Sunday against the Patriots, yet he isn't slated for many snaps behind Kiko Alonso.
