But the Pro Bowl running back, who returned Tuesday for the team's mandatory minicamp at a slimmer 215 pounds, said he has been "working my butt off" with his longtime trainer in South Florida. And he said he will fully participate in training camp.

Ingram, who is facing a four-game suspension to start the 2018 season for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances, said he'll be prepared to "jump right in immediately and make an impact" when he returns in Week 5.

"You know, people will make their own narrative. The media makes their own narrative. I'm not angry with my contract. I wasn't holding out," said Ingram, who is heading into the final year of his deal after he had his career-best season in 2017 in a productive timeshare with Offensive Rookie of the Year Alvin Kamara. ...

Going into free agency, the New Orleans Saints were set to lose some important players. Paulson Adebo and Chase Young led this group, and with a big transition happening on the Saints’ defense, somehow bringing back at least one of these players should be a goal of this team. The apparent issue is the cap space, and we have already seen that impact. CB Paulson Adebo is set to sign with the New York Giants, per Ian Rapoport

Losing Adebo will have a massive impact on this defense. With Kool-Aid Mckinstry on the outside and Alontae Taylor probably being moved back to slot corner, New Orleans...

The New Orleans Saints need to get to positive cap space by the start of the league year, which is this Wednesday. With moves expected to be made in free agency and the Saints already trading for former Patriots DT Davon Godchaux, more cap space needs to be opened up. The team can do this without destroying next year’s cap space, and being selective in who they restructure is how they do that. The Saints can focus on only restructuring players expected to be on this roster for the next 2-3 years. Usually, this applies to the younger players, but one of the older veterans is the exception...

Bauer: Why Derek Carr’s restructure has upset the some of the Saints fanbase

On Saturday evening, the news broke that the New Orleans Saints decided to restructure quarterback Derek Carr’s contract. With this move, it will save the team up to $30 million but his cap hit in 2026 is expected to be around $69 million, according to Kat Terrell of ESPN.

Before the restructure, the Saints had the option to cut Carr this offseason, which would have resulted in a cap hit of around $50 million. Additionally, if Carr was designated as a post-June 1st release, the cap hit could have been spread over two years. This, however, wouldn't have left much room to sign many free...
