They're "getting close," though, according to head coach Kellen Moore's recent comments to reporters . Kamara is on the downslope of his career, and the Saints brought in free agent RB Travis Etienne this offseason from the Jacksonville Jaguars . That puts Kamara in a precarious spot as far as the roster is concerned.
It also means the Saints have to decide what to do next. They have four main options, according to ESPN's Katherine Terrell . The simplest move from an execution standpoint is to keep Kamara on his current contract.
"If they keep him at his current contract, he will count $10. 4 million against the salary cap," Terrell writes. They could try and get Kamara to take a pay cut, which he would potentially do if he simply wanted to stay in New Orleans and not worry about finding a new NFL home.
