I'm told thye Saints gave TE Dallin Holker a $10,000 signing bonus and $235,000 total guaranteed. That's the highest amount of guarantees this year (Jermaine Jackson got $160,000 guaranteed) and the most since Mark Evans $241,000 guaranteed last year.

The Pelicans lost the Zion-Ingram-CJ minutes this season. Those three are owed $106 million next season. Will the Pelicans run it back with their Big 3? Here's what David Griffin said. nola.com/sports/pelican…

Two years ago, Steve Gleason - "Live Impossible", Michel & I began our journey on this extraordinary project. As he did throughout his stellar NFL career, Steve poured every ounce of himself into the mission. Honored, grateful & excited to see 'A Life Impossible' come to fruition & hit stores today.

Brandon Ingram owned his subpar play vs. OKC, but needed him to own the series itself.

My column from Monday night at the Smoothie King Center, where the Pels' season came to an end.

Raw stuff from Brandon Ingram tonight: “I’ll be honest. This was, from USA up to this season, this was probably the worst I’ve been in a New Orleans Pelican uniform. I’m motivated by that.”

fall to OKC 97-89 and are swept for just the second time in franchise history.

Expect this team to look a little different next season.
