0:00It's March 10th for the NFL. Let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. The New Orleans Saints kicked off day two of free agency with a smart money move. They restructured center Eric McCoy's contract, slashing his cap hit from $17,680,000 down to $10,320,000. That saves the team over $7,300,000 against the salary cap right away. McCoy inked that five-year deal worth $63,750,000 back in 2022. It's a key part of their offensive line setup, and this tweak keeps him locked in without major changes. This gives the Saints some breathing room under the cap as they hunt for more talent. Fans are buzzing about how it opens the door for bigger splashes in free agency or trades. No word yet on other restructures, but it's a clear sign of their prioritizing flexibility. People say these moves help them stay competitive in a tight market.
