The New Orleans Saints are looking to make some additions to their current roster.
After taking a look at their team over the first week of camp they realize some depth is needed.
So the Saints are looking at some available veterans who have still not found a home.
According to Dianna Russini, the Saints are hosting both running back Kareem Hunt and linebacker Anthony Barr for a workout.
The Saints are not only working out running back Kareem Hunt, they are also working out linebacker Anthony Barr today, per source.

Both players are in the back nine of their careers, but they could be solid backups.
Adding Hunt makes sense after the news broke that Alvin Kamara would be suspended for three weeks.
But, Barr is a player that looked like a shell of himself last year in Dallas.
He played 14 games for the Cowboys and recorded one sack with 58 total tackles.
You could tell that Barr has lost a step and he is best used as a part-time player.
It will be intriguing to see if the Saints decide to sign either of these players.
Relying on either to play a big role this season would be a mistake.
But, it is never a bad thing to have more veteran leadership in the locker room.
The addition of Derek Carr at quarterback for the Saints makes them the favorite in the NFC South.
He is by far the best and most proven quarterback in the division.
Anything short of a playoff berth would be a major disappointment in the Bayou.
