If traded the following would apply via spotrac ...

Post June 1 Trade

2022 Dead Cap: $11,813,000
2023 Dead Cap: $25,452,000
2022 Cap Savings: $1,235,000

In other words, as Major_K pointed out to mapcow, that isn't going to happen.

After all these short clips I've seen he doesn't look great. I'm trying to remain optimistic about his return but I'm growing more and more concerned. This gap in his career has me wondering if he'll ever be the same. I need to see more.

You sound like a rational fan. Same as most of us.

Juxtapose MT's track post injury to that of Taysom Hill and you can see why many feel frustrated by his perceived lack of commitment....

Completely fair assessment.

99.9% of us (fans, reporters, Saints coaches/medical staff/doctors) feel this way.

Training camp is about a MONTH away, then it gets real

Think MT is feeling some heat?

Interesting. Wonder if he upgraded his equipment or if he’s planning on a move? 🤔

He's working out at the Saints facilities every day now. I would suspect since he's giving them away they have to have been his own personal equipment that he used at home and wouldn't be needed now that he has access to the facilities instead. It's a great opportunity for some local New Orleans high school.

It’s a good gesture on his part.
