Last week, my cohort at FanSided sister site NFL Spin Zone, Rebecca Mills, put out a piece titled “New Orleans Saints: Most surprising 2019 offseason move?” The conclusion of her piece was that the most surprising offseason move was the team letting Mark Ingram go in free agency. I wouldn’t begin to refute that.
While there was a lot of chatter from analysts that maybe the time had come to let the former Heisman Trophy winner walk, not a great number of them thought they would do it. Surely cooler heads would prevail and all that.
