Nevertheless, 2020 is a crucial year for the future of the Saint’s offense, especially in the run game. With the addition of Latavius Murray, the New Orleans Saints have found a way to maintain their smash-n-dash run game fans feared they’d lost when Mark Ingram left town.
Murray is under contract for another three years, the knowledge of which should relieve fans after a 630-yard, five-touchdown season.
The only looming trouble for New Orleans is the Alvin Kamara contract.
Past running-back mega-deals have given prize runners a ridiculous amount of leverage. Despite a wholly disappointing 2019 campaign, there’s plenty of argument to be made Kamara is worthy of a lofty, Zeke-esque contract.
