IRVINE, Calif. -- New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara confirmed his request for a new contract on Wednesday, but he made it clear he won't hold out from training camp while those talks are ongoing.
"I ain't stupid, I ain't going to give the money up. I'm trying to get some money," Kamara joked in his first public comments since he skipped the final practice of mandatory minicamp in June.
There have been several high profile holdouts across the league this week as teams begin practice, with some including fines of $40,000 to $50,000 for each missed day.
