The Saints announced late Tuesday that they have signed wide receiver Robert Meachem to a one year deal.

Meachem was the Saints number one draft pick in 2007, but signed a long term deal with San Diego before the 2012 season. The Chargers released Meachem while still owing him $5 million guaranteed for this year.

The 28 year old says it was not a good fit in San Diego and he’s glad to be home. In four years with the Saints, Meachem caught 23 touchdowns. Meachem scored only two touchdowns in his one year in San Diego, both came against New Orleans. The Saints signed Meachem after watching him work-out on Tuesday.
