New Orleans Saints Executive Vice President/General Manager Mickey Loomis announced today that the club has agreed to terms with unrestricted free agent offensive lineman Olisaemeka Udoh (pronounced OH-lee-suh-MEE-kah OO-doe).
Udoh, 6-6, 320, is a five-year NFL veteran who was originally selected by the Minnesota Vikings in the sixth round (193rd overall) of the 2019 NFL Draft out of Elon. In five seasons, he has appeared in 43 regular season games with 18 starts at right guard and left tackle and started one postseason contest at right tackle.
In 2023, Udoh played in two games with one start at left tackle in Week Two before suffering a season-ending quadriceps injury. In 2022, he provided depth along the offensive line before moving into the starting lineup at right tackle in Week 18 and Minnesota's NFC Wild Card Playoff appearance. In 2021, he played in all 17 contests with 14 starts at right guard and two at left tackle.
At Elon, the Fayetteville, N.C. native started 45 consecutive games from 2015-18 after redshirting in 2014. As a redshirt senior in 2018, he earned Phil Steele FCS first-team All-America honors in helping Elon average 199.5 yards per game on the ground to finish second in the Colonial Athletic Association. Udoh earned invites to the NFL Scouting Combine, East-West Shrine Game and Reese's Senior Bowl.
