As expected, Tim Lelito will be back with the New Orleans Saints for at least one more year.
The fourth-year guard signed his one-year restricted free agent tender worth $1.67 million on Thursday. He posted a photo on Instagram:
Lelito, 26, drew some interest from the Dallas Cowboys, among other teams, but never got serious enough to sign an offer sheet with anyone else.
It would have been hard to pry Lelito away from New Orleans, where he originally signed as an undrafted rookie out of Grand Valley State in 2013.
