Tyler Palko, the former West Allegheny High and Pitt standout, has been added to the New Orleans Saints’ 53 man roster. Palko had been on the Saints’ practice squad but he will serve as the team’s third quarterback tonight when New Orleans opens the season against the World Champion Indianapolis Colts. The Saints released defensive end Rob Ninkovich to make room for Palko on the roster.
