Kwon Alexander arrived back at New Orleans Saints training camp.   Sharif "Dr. Reef" Tabbah from Athletix Rehab Center shared with me, "Kwon wanted to be with the Saints."   Sean Payton said, the team will slowly acclimate Alexander with the camp drills.

During Friday morning's walkthrough, Alexander was with the first-team defensive unit.

Current linebacker depth in camp:  

• Demario Davis, Kwon Alexander, Zack Baun, Pete Werner, Andrew Dowell, Kaden Elliss, Chase Hansen, Wynton McManis, Ouentin Poling, and Shaq Smith.

Linebackers' notable performances in camp (per John Hendrix):

• Zack Baun has had several big plays and intercepted a pass.  
• Andrew Dowell is becoming a playmaker.  
• Pete Werner is proving his instincts as a football player is benefiting his role in the rotation.
