There’s those numbers everyone is looking for. KPRC2 Houston’s Aaron Wilson first reported the numbers on Tanoh Kpassagnon’s contract extension with the New Orleans Saints, sharing that the big defensive end inked a two-year deal valued at a maximum of $6 million.
This is a good value for the Saints, though we don’t know the exact salary cap hit for retaining Kpassagnon. He was set to count about $1.5 million against the cap due to a past restructure with automatically-voiding years rewritten into his contract, so at least there isn’t much going to waste here. Some dead money will probably be owed one day once Kpassagnon is no longer on the roster, but for now the Saints get to max out their resources and he gets some security. Good for him.
