A few weeks ago, the Saints were the worst-placed team in the league in terms of payroll, with the total exceeding the limit by nearly $50 million. Yes but now, the opportunity to find a franchise quarterback can cause miracles.
By dint of reworking contracts, transforming salaries into bonuses, New Orleans has almost 30 million dollars available! Voodoo must also be used for that, apparently.
Why 30 million? Perhaps because the franchise met Deshaun Watson for the second time on Wednesday night, according to NewOrleans.football.
Watson is expected to weigh in at $35 million next season. The Saints are not very far from the account, especially if players must be included in a possible exchange.
On the side of Pro Football Network, it is reported that the choice of Watson would now be reduced to two teams: New Orleans and Atlanta.
The Saints are said to be determined, while the Falcons have the advantage of playing in the player’s home state.
