What happened: Alvin Kamara's agent, Brad Cicala, confirmed to Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport that the running back's new deal has been agreed. The confirmation follows earlier reporting from Nick Underhill and Terron Armstead that an agreement was imminent.

Why it matters: The reworked deal ends months of speculation that Kamara's salary would push him out of New Orleans amid the team's addition of Travis Etienne. It follows Kamara's agent saying in June that the running back planned to play for the Saints in 2026.

What to watch: Full terms of the reworked contract are expected as the deal is finalized.
