New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was rumored by some to be on the trade block heading into the deadline next month.
That won’t be happening, though.
According to a report out of New Orleans, the Saints have decided not to shop Kamara heading into the deadline.
He will remain a member of the NFC South franchise.
“The Saints aren’t shopping Alvin Kamara, per sources. The team currently does not plan to trade him,” Nick Underhill reports.
Saints fans are relieved.
“Alvin Kamara would have about $14M in dead money if traded, so no we can’t trade him,” one fan wrote.
“Everyone can breathe now…” another fan added.
“They better not!!” one fan wrote.
“The fact this even has to be put out by Nick just shows how Saints fans will believe anything they see & hear on this app,” another fan wrote.
The Saints, 2-5 on the season, are set to take on the Raiders on Sunday afternoon.
