| Good morning, and welcome to the Saints Insider newsletter for June 29. Sure, it might be the slow time of year on the NFL schedule, but will that stop us from talking Saints? My friends, the answer is no, it surely will not. So, starting this morning, we're going to periodically look at some of the questions, issues and points of interest regarding the 2022 Saints as we count down the weeks and days until training camp begins (in late July, by the way). First up, let's take a peek at five players who might be in line for a big new payday if everything goes according to plan in 2022. New Orleans has a good chunk of its most important players signed for the next couple of seasons, but we identified a few who are expected to play a key role and are entering the final year of their contract. We'll keep these coming over the next couple of weeks to keep you satisfied until training camp starts, but if you've got any topics you'd like us to consider, feel free to let me know by emailing me at ljohnson@theadvocate.com That's not all today! Saints icon Steve Gleason earned yet another feather in his cap for his inspiring advocacy, which Jeff Duncan fills you in on here, and a long-time Saints staffer and an LSU graduate are receiving recognition from the Pro Football Hall of Fame this week. Oh, and if you wanted some video in your life, here's Jameis Winston dropping back and chucking it deep. Thanks as always for your support. Cheers, Luke Johnson |
