The #Saints  have agreed to terms with DE Carl Granderson on a four-year contract extension, source says. The former undrafted free agent gets long-term security with the team that signed him back in 2019.

Compensation update: Saints are signing DE Carl Granderson to a four-year, $52 million contract extension that includes $35.3 million guaranteed, source said.



I love it. Granderson has been great. Somehow we draft all these d ends and the only one that ends up being good is the undrafted one.

Very smart move. He is the player they tried to draft in Davenport and Turner.

Waving the white flag on Turner.

I’m glad we are keeping him, decent deal for his contribution.

Future salary cap is going to be crazy.

Good move. He's what we hoped Turner and/or Davenport would become.

Smart move.

Have been calling them to lock him up on a cheaper deal.

Good move. Grand has progressed nicely. Became a force and leader on the D line. Happy for him and his family.

Fantastic deal! Loomis smartened up and didn’t let a rising star get away like Hendrickson did. He would have gotten $15-17 million per on the open market so this is a great deal for the Saints.

Smart. He leads the league in pressures. If he stayed top 5 in pressures and finished with double digit sacks he probably would have gotten $16-$17M a year on the open market

Better value contract than what we gave Ruiz for sure. Very fair for both sides.

Not mad about this deal. Grando will earn the contract. Cesar Ruiz however? The jury is out to see if he ever earns that extension.

Currently 3rd in the NFL in pressures. Turner a question mark. Jordan has a cliff somewhere in sight. Basically had no choice, but glad it worked out.
