No resolution yet on Nick Fairley's contract with Saints

MOBILE, Ala. -- New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said Wednesday that there has been no resolution yet with defensive tackle Nick Fairley's contract, and he is not sure what the timetable will be.

Both sides filed grievances last year after the Saints placed Fairley on the reserve/non-football illness list because of a heart issue that prevented him from playing football.

Fairley signed a four-year contract last March that included an $8 million signing bonus and $14 million in guarantees.
