Reunited and it feels so good.

The Houston Texans are trading veteran running back Mark Ingram, Jr. to the New Orleans Saints, multiple outlets first reported Wednesday.

New Orleans will send future late-round picks to Houston, NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero reported.

Ingram is the second-leading rusher in Saints franchise history, just 89 yard behind Deuce McAllister. Playing in New Orleans from 2011-18, Ingram signed with Baltimore as a free agent. Following two seasons with the Ravens, the former first round pick by the Saints inked a one-year deal this past offseason with Houston.

In seven games this season, Ingram has 292 yards on 92 carries plus seven catches for 24 yards with one rushing touchdown.

The Saints add needed depth behind star Alvin Kamara.
