While the franchise tag deadline did not produce any drama this year, the Saints are making some news today. Despite signing Travis Etienne in March, New Orleans intends to retain Alvin Kamara for at least one more season.
Kamara is positioned to stay with the Saints for a 10th year, with NewOrleans.football’s Nick Underhill reporting the sides are finalizing a reworked contract. One season remained on Kamara’s two-year Saints extension, which he had signed during the 2024 season, but Etienne’s arrival clouded the former Pro Bowler’s status.
More to come.
