Saints Execs love Spencer Rattler per ESPN’s Matt Miller

That last option. Sit him down and let him know he can have a trade or have a seat and waste a year of his career. Expensive backup if he stays, but he’s not the future.
To sit him down leaves a $51 million cap hit this year if not restructured. That is what I'd like to avoid if possible. I'd like to hope the team will communicate that possibility to him before the deadline to release him so that he can weigh that against his no trade clause. Obviously, it won't come until after the new coach has been hired. Just thinking ahead a little.
