Running back Reggie Bush was a key contributor for New Orleans Saints in the playoffs, so despite an $eight million salary in 2010, he remains in the Saints’ plans. Talks about new deal already began between the franchise and Bush’s agent Joel Segal.
Many league executives believed the Saints might ask Bush to restructure his deal or ultimately release him in an uncapped year, but the Saints do not seem likely to do that. Actually the club has tendered qualifying offers to 13 of 18 players slated to become restricted free agents next week. And with one week left before the start of free agency, the Saints may make more offers to retain more key players.
The Saints have had several conversations with Segal, who also represents Saints star safety Darren Sharper. It seems to take some time for the Saints to have some deals done, as these players have the right to see if they could receiver better offers from other teams before agreeing to continue wearing Saints jerseys.
