Professional career
New Orleans Saints
During Week 9 in 2012, Cadet made his first and only carry of the season for 5 yards. He had a 45-yard run, but it was called back because receiver Marques Colston was called for holding.
In Week 6 of the 2013 NFL season, Cadet had his first touchdown reception of his career.
Cadet was set to be a restricted free agent after the 2014 season, but the Saints did not place a tender on him.
New England Patriots
On March 17, 2015, Cadet was signed by the New England Patriots.[3] Due to injury there was little playing time for Cadet and he was active for only one game before he was released by the Patriots on September 29, 2015.[4]
