The Saints signed Mellott to their practice squad Tuesday, Matthew Paras of NOLA.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
A college quarterback, Mellott was selected in the sixth round of the 2025 Draft by the Raiders and announced as a wide receiver. He failed to make Las Vegas' 53-man roster this summer and will now head to New Orleans, where Taysom Hill made a similar position switch with success. Mellott can continue to work on his development on the practice squad.

Mellott was waived by the Raiders on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Mellott was selected in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, recording two catches for one yard while appearing in all three preseason games. Considering the draft capital spent on him in April, it's likely that Las Vegas will look to add the wide receiver to the practice squad if he clears waivers.
