The agent for Saints Pro Bowl guard Jahri Evans tells FOX 8 Sports, the Saints have tendered his client.
Evans’ agent Jerrold Colton confirmed Evans was tendered although would not say at what level. Colton would not confirm an espn.com report that the Saints and Evans are getting close to a long term deal. “Both sides would love to reach a deal long term,” Colton said. “But no deal is imminent.” Evans is coming off a career year where he was named to his 1st Pro Bowl. As a tendered restricted free agent, the Saints would have the right to match any offer. Depending on the level of tender, the Saints would receive draft choices if Evans were to sign with another team. The Saints have not commented on the report.

Re: Saints tender G Evans
You have to figure it's the highest level tender and that the long term plan is a long term deal
I'd take the first and third for Brown, but not Evans |

Re: Saints Tender G Jahri Evans
The Saints have extended a first- and third-round tender to restricted free agent RG Jahri Evans.
The sides are working on a long-term deal, but New Orleans had to make this move before the March 4 deadline to ensure Evans wouldn't become an unrestricted free agent. Evans, 26, was a 2009 first-team All-Pro selection. Fantasy Football, Baseball and Basketball - draft guide, news, projections, cheatsheets, depth charts and more. Rotoworld.com |

Re: Saints Tender G Jahri Evans
Front load alot of the money to the 2010 season while signing him to a long term deal. It will be easier on the cap when it comes back next year and beyond.

Re: Saints Tender G Jahri Evans
It's highly doubtful we will see a cap again. For players like Brees and Evans it really doesn't matter though. You pay your All Pro players. They are your core.
