So it seems the Saints won’t be parting ways with Alvin Kamara.
Alvin Kamara, the star running back, has committed to staying in New Orleans for the next five years after reaching an agreement on a $75 million contract extension. This deal includes $34.333 million guaranteed in case of injury (source: ProFootballTalk).
During the end of training camp, Kamara was absent from a few practices citing a back problem, but speculation was rife that it was linked to contract talks rather than a real injury.
Now that both parties have settled their differences, they can focus on the season ahead. The Saints boast one of the most talented squads in the NFL, and the expectation is that their high-caliber players can help propel the team to Super Bowl success.
