METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints have signed guard Cesar Ruiz to a four-year extension, with sources telling ESPN's Adam Schefter the deal is worth up to $46 million, including $30 million guaranteed.
This is the third extension for the Saints since training camp began, as they also signed defensive end Cameron Jordan and longer snapper Zach Wood to new deals.
Ruiz, who was selected by the Saints with the 24th pick of the 2020 NFL draft, did not have his fifth-year option picked up in May. His fifth-year option would have counted $14.
