Saints Running Back Alvin Kamara Agrees to Restructured Deal to Stay with Team

The move follows offseason questions about his role after New Orleans signed Travis Etienne Jr. to a four-year, $52 million deal.

  • On Wednesday, the New Orleans Saints and running back Alvin Kamara finalized a restructured contract keeping him in New Orleans for the 2026 season.
  • Speculation regarding Kamara's future intensified after the Saints signed Travis Etienne Jr. to a four-year, $52 million contract in March, raising questions about his role.
  • Kamara is coming off his least productive season, posting career lows with 471 rushing yards and 186 receiving yards while missing the final six games due to injury.
  • Agent Brad Cicala told NFL Network that Kamara's goal was to "remain with the Saints and retire a Saint," while Kamara stated he has "no beef" with management.
  • The agreement secures the five-time Pro Bowler for his 10th season in New Orleans, where the Saints rely on his veteran leadership to guide their young roster.
