Saints apparently restructured Taysom's contract this week

Taysom's current contract goes...

2024: 1.21mil base, 7.986mil prorated bonus (9.2mil cap hit). 25.7mil dead, lose additional 16.5mil if cut

2025: 10mil base, 7.986mil prorated bonus (17.99mil cap hit). 17.7mil dead, 277k gained
- Long story short, he aint leaving.
- End of contract

Money borrowed/cap hit regardless
2026: 9.72mil
2027: 3.96mil

25.7mil dead

For an aging gadget player.

That’s insane.

Has to be to trade for a player at a position of need. Why else would they need to add a few million in cap space at this time of the year?

Yeah that part doesn't make much sense.

I have to imagine these 2 restructures are tied to confidence that we're not trading Latt, because if we still trade Latt these moves would be batshit insane.

Every player that signs a contract is aging ya dummy

They didn’t restructure Kamara.

I kinda like that they waited to do this. He's in camp now and the new offensive staff is probably talking about how they can use him

At this point he probably just needs to play TE. Johnson isn’t really setting the world on fire like we hoped he would.

So much for the soft reboot.

Restructuring Hill and Kamara's deals is getting the fricking band back together, boys.

Come on man.

You are better than this.

They aren't giving them new contracts
