Sadly, in the NFL, players rarely play their entire careers for one team.

PT is a special Saint, and always will be. A class act from day 1 and as hard-working and dedicated to his craft as any player to put on a helmet.

He showed others that it doesn't matter if you aren't drafted. If you work hard and have confidence, you can suceed in life.

He is a Saints Hall of Famer, and one of the best to ever put on a jersey for this team - not all due to his on field contributions, but off field as well.

Sad to see you go, PT, but thank you for the excitement and the plethora of memories in your storied Saints career.

yeah, it seemed like he was the go-to-guy in the backfield once Deuce left. Can't think of any other back who consistently made plays running and catching the ball out the backfield.

he had a helluva run.

is he still the only Saints RB to ever run for over 100 yards and catch for over 100 yards in one game? He ripped the Bears in the '07 finale for something big time along those lines. We lost the game... but still that was a heck of game for him and pretty much put everyone on notice that he was going to be around for awhile.
