Fokou was signed by the Saints on Tuesday, ESPN's Adam Caplan reports.

He was released by the Titans prior to the start of the season, and will provide some depth behind Curtis Lofton at inside linebacker.

Fokou was released by the Titans on Saturday, The Tennessean reports.

Fokou inked a two-year deal to land in Tennessee prior to the 2013 season, but a knee injury sustained last October limited him to 12 games. He should be able to find a job in short order, though, after mustering 78 tackles, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, and a sack in the abbreviated campaign.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou graded out among Pro Football Focus' 10 worst inside linebackers both in coverage and against the run in 2013.

Fokou finished the season as PFF's No. 53 of 55 qualifying inside linebackers despite missing four games last season. Middle linebacker has been a soft spot for the Titans since Stephen Tulloch's departure in 2011. Fokou is signed through 2014, but it's unclear how he'll fit into new defensive coordinator Ray Horton's plans.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou (knee) has resumed practicing, and will be active for Week 12.

Fokou has missed the Titans' past four games, and is expected to be on a snap count. It could take him a week or two to regain starting duties from Colin McCarthy.

The Titans expect MLB Moise Fokou (knee) to return next week.

Fokou has been out since Week 6 due to his knee injury, but returned to practice on a limited basis this week. He was playing on 97.6 percent of Tennessee's defensive snaps prior to going down and will immediately regain his starting job from Colin McCarthy when healthy.

Titans declared MLB Moise Fokou, WR Damian Williams, CB Tommie Campbell, LB Zaviar Gooden, C Brian Schwenke, OT Mike Otto and DE LaVar Edwards inactive for Week 11 against the Colts.

It's Fokou's fourth straight inactive. Colin McCarthy will continue to fill in at middle linebacker. Starting in place of Jake Locker (Lisfranc, injured reserve), Ryan Fitzpatrick is a viable, if low-end, QB2 for Week 11.

Titans declared MLB Moise Fokou, QB Rusty Smith, CB Tommie Campbell, LB Zac Diles, G/T Pat McQuistan, RT David Stewart and DE Lavar Edwards inactive for Week 10 against the Jaguars.

Fokou remains week to week. Colin McCarthy will continue to fill in at middle linebacker in his absence.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou (knee) has been ruled out for Week 10.

Colin McCarthy will start at middle linebacker against the Jaguars.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou (knee) returned to practice Thursday.

It puts Fokou on track to return against the Jaguars. Colin McCarthy has filled in during Fokou's two-game absence.

The Nashville Tennessean reports MLB Moise Fokou's (knee) status remains uncertain for Week 10.

Fokou missed the last two games with a knee injury and has yet to resume practicing. Colin McCarthy will make another start this week if he's unable to return.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou (knee) is expected to miss his second straight game Sunday.

The Titans' bye week wasn't enough time for Fokou to get right. Colin McCarthy will start in Fokou's place against the Rams.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou (knee) did not practice Monday.

The bye week wasn't quite enough for Fokou to get right. "I feel good but it's still sort of day-to-day, week-to-week," he said. "I could be back out there this weekend or be back next week ƒ?" it's just up to the trainers and the coaching staff." Backup Colin McCarthy filled in with eight tackles and one tackle for a loss when he started againt the 49ers in Week 7.

Titans coach Mike Munchak confirmed Tuesday that MLB Moise Fokou (knee) will be out for Week 7.

Speaking on his weekly radio show, Munchak said Colin McCarthy will start at middle linebacker against the 49ers. Fokou's injury is supposedly "nothing major," but the fact that he's been ruled out so early suggests he'll be dicey for Week 8.

A Monday MRI confirmed Titans MLB Moise Fokou's sprained knee is "nothing major."

According to coach Jim Schwartz, Fokou is likely week to week. That, of course, all but rules him out for Sunday's tilt with Frank Gore and the 49ers. Perhaps Fokou will be ready after Tennessee's Week 8 bye. Colin McCarthy will start in the interim.

The Titans are reportedly optimistic that MLB Moise Fokou's knee injury is not overly serious.

Fokou and the Titans are hoping a Monday MRI reveals a mildly sprained knee. Through six games, the every-down Mike 'backer has racked up 40 tackles and forced two fumbles in the loss at Seattle Sunday.

Titans MLB Moise Fokou was forced from Sunday's game against the Seahawks with a sprained knee, and will not return.

The Titans have no plans to remove Moise Fokou as their every-down linebacker.

Fokou has played on 97.6 percent of Tennessee's defensive snaps despite not being their best linebacker against the pass and is expected to continue to be used in dime packages over Zach Brown. "We have found no reason to take Moses off the field," position coach Chet Parlavecchio said. "It's been always a traditional thing, the 'Mike' linebacker runs the show. We have a situation here where our Mike is very comfortable. It's not just about him, it's about the way he communicates adjustments, the way he recognizes formation."

The Nashville Tennessean expects Moise Fokou to be the Titans' starting middle linebacker in Week 1.

Colin McCarthy is "still slowed" by a lingering hamstring injury. Fokou, a former seventh-round pick, signed a two-year, $2.8 million deal in March to be a reserve utility 'backer. Pro Football Focus did give Fokou solid marks in run defense last year, but he was a situational player for the Colts.

The Nashville Tennessean believes Moise Fokou is beginning to distance himself from Colin McCarthy (hamstring) at middle linebacker.

McCarthy simply can't stay on the practice field. Fokou is expected to make his second consecutive preseason start on Saturday after running with the first team all offseason. It's a concern for a Titans team with holes all over its defense, as Fokou is little better than replacement-level. He's better suited for a reserve/special teams role.

The Nashville Tennessean named LB Moise Fokou an "offseason star" for the Titans.

Fokou signed a two-year deal with the Titans in March, and he got a lot of work with the first-team defense in pad-less spring practices with MLB Colin McCarthy working his way back from injuries. The Titans want Fokou to push McCarthy for the starting job, and it's going to be a position battle to monitor for IDP purposes. If healthy, McCarthy should win the job with ease.
