After the New Orleans Saints splashed the cash on a new running back, current star rusher Alvin Kamara is reportedly considering retirement.
On Monday, the Saints signed running back Travis Etienne to a $52million contract, making him the highest paid rusher in the league.
According to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, questions about the future of the 30-year-old Kamara – who has been a staple in the New Orleans backfield for most of the past decade – are now popping up.
‘Obviously this really calls into question the status of Alvin Kamara, who re-did his contract,’ Rapoport said on NFL Network’s coverage of the opening day of free agency.
‘I think it’s fair to say some have wondered whether or not he would walk away from the game at its height and end up sipping a Mai Tai on the beach, I believe that’s the way he described it.’
