So close. Gillikin. He's currently a FA so Carr stole his number.

We didn't tender him so pretty sure hes a FA now.

I think they just don't want to spend a bunch on a Punter and hope to resign him for a fairly minimal contract

i was going off of this:

Gillikin’s contract with the Saints expired, making him a restricted free agent, though he’s a good pick to return to the team on a new deal.

They resigned him.

"Saints re-signed P Blake Gillikin, per source" Underhill

Probably just wanted to give Carr a chance to snatch #4 lol

The New Orleans Saints are re-signing Blake Gillikin. The 25-year-old was brought in as a UDFA to replace long-time punter Thomas Morstead. Gillikin had 32 punts inside the 20. This was tied for fourth place among all punters. He also ranked in the top ten in net yards.

The Penn State alumni is one of the best punters in the league. The team will benefit greatly from having him back in the building. However, Gillikin will be getting a new number this season.

Gillikin is giving his number four to the Saints new QB Derek Carr. He will wear number five this season.

He's a punter, he has no choice but to get another number.

Lol Every time I see his name, I magine him wearing a white sailors cap and punting a ball on a beach somewhere. Lol But yeah, he did the right thing in giving the number up, I can't imagine Carr in another number. From Black and silver to Black and gold!

Also, Ginger was my favorite.
