Quarterback Ben DiNucci announced his release from the New Orleans Saints over social media on Tuesday morning.
His stay with New Orleans wasn’t a long one. He joined the Saints’ practice squad in December and remained with the franchise on a futures deal.
“The NFL is a tough business. Always has been and always will be,” DiNucci posted on X. “Got released by the Saints this morning. Control what I can control and go back to work.”
The Saints addressed their quarterback room by selecting Louisville’s Tyler Shough in the second round of this year’s draft. New Orleans also has fellow QBs Derek Carr, Jake Haener and Spencer Rattler on its 90-man roster.
DiNucci, 28, has appeared in three NFL games (one start), all with the Dallas Cowboys in 2020 when starter Dak Prescott injured his ankle. DiNucci completed 23 of 43 passes (53.5 percent) for 219 yards. The Cowboys drafted him in the seventh round in 2020.
After the Cowboys released him in August 2022, DiNucci spent time with the Denver Broncos’ practice squad during the 2023 season before his release last May. The Buffalo Bills signed him on Aug. 12 and released him two weeks later.
