Mark Ingram: Yes, the New Orleans Saints want me back

Cadet shouldn't be with the Saints in 2015; he's not needed as a RB and Saunders can take over the KR/PR duties.

I don't know if Khiry is under contract or is a RFA/UFA.

Like most things in life it will come down to $$.

Glendale, Ariz. -- New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram will hit free agency this season with a chance to test the waters. Ingram said the Saints have told him they want him back.

"They said they want me back, for sure," he said. "I was their draft pick, so they said they definitely want me to come back."

But does he want to be back?

Ingram's four-year career with the Saints has been a roller-coaster ride, beset by injuries and streaks of success. He admitted this season, capped off with his first Pro Bowl berth, has been the best of his career.

However, there were reports that Ingram requested a trade in 2013 at a time that he was struggling with injury and his on-field performance. Ingram and Saints coach Sean Payton both vehemently denied the report.

Who's saying this the article or you?

Don't forget we lost a playoff game when we ran out running backs!!!

Now if you got someone better, by all means share...

It's going to come down to money, I don't see the team willing to offer Mark what he wants; especially with his pro-bowl he backed into...

I would like him back, he was a late bloomer that I still believe can get even better. He looked strong last season, run well, and his vision looked good, which makes keeping him a no-brainer. Ingram can tote the load if need be.

And we want you back as well Mark.

He is not really a good fit for this team. I think that he would benefit greatly with a change of scenery.

Yeah, you're right. I was getting used to Deuce McAllister being the last back with 1,000yds in Saints history.

I don't think he's staying and thats another tall order in the draft.
