The Chicago Bears have signed a 3-year offer sheet to Restricted Free Agent Tight End Josh Hill. The financial terms have not been revealed, but it would cost at least $1.67M per year for the Saints to match the Bears offer and keep the tight end in New Orleans. Currently, the deal is thought to be "close" to the $2M per year point.
The Saints have already signed Coby Fleener to a pocket-busting $36M deal this offseason and retained the services of Michael Hoomanawanui. The New Orleans Saints also have a league-lowest $1.
