Sportskeeda’s Tony Pauline: “I’m told Saints are considering releasing Tyrann Mathieu” [Tyrann: “Slow news day....I am New Orleans!”]

Kind of sounds like an agent trying to gage his player's value after the team asked him to take a pay cut.

I'd hate to see him go because he's a great guy in the community, but we do need to upgrade and get younger at Safety.

Yeah that seems like a good guess. His cap hit is 9th in the NFL for safeties, 12th for base salary and he's older than everyone else in the top 20. He has a 1M roster bonus that becomes guaranteed on the 16th, I guess we'll know by then at the latest.
