Dang, Saints really missed him in the Divisional playoff game. Runs hard, will miss him.

Also pretty excited to see what Tony Jones Jr can do in the #2 role. I know it's just preseason, but he's looked great so far.

Sometimes it’s better to cut a player one year early than later. Tony Jones Jr did look more explosive at camp and in pre season games. It’s a business.

I appreciate the efforts by LTrain though. He was a very good back for New Orleans … even in a limited role.

Yikes, it's a business. Hope it works out for us and Murray both over time. I am a little nervous about losing our power back, but maybe our running game is changing to more of a zone, one-cut style, to fit Kamara and Jones Jr.

Read that him refusing a pay cut had something to do with his being let go.
