Ring the bell: the New Orleans Saints should now be compliant with the 2023 salary cap. NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill reports that cornerback Marshon Lattimore agreed on a contract restructure which should free up as much as $10,065,000 by converting most of his $14.5 million base salary into a new signing bonus and spreading it out over future years.
Take that with the other two restructures the team completed on Monday — with defensive end Cameron Jordan and running back Alvin Kamara — and the Saints should be in the clear. Now they don’t have to worry about just being cap-compliant. The work instead is focused on opening up resources to add new players. But the most difficult challenges are still ahead.
