Report: Saints cornerback Keenan Lewis frustrated over contract and letting go of key players, threatens hold out
A busy day for the Saints with the trade of tight end Jimmy Graham got even busier with the ESPN report that start cornerback Keenan Lewis is frustrated with his current contract and the gutting of the team's roster. "I think it is time for me to take my talent somewhere else. New Orleans it has been good." Lewis wrote on his Instagram site. According to ESPN's Mike Triplett, Lewis wants the Saints to finalize the final three years of his contract or let him go." Lewis signed a five-year, $26.3 million deal with the Saints before the 2013 season. Triplett tweeted: "CB Lewis said hes not feeling safe or happy with team being broken apart. Not asking for more $ but more security." Triplett also tweeted: "Lewis says he wants to be released or traded or he won't come to OTAs, etc." Report: Saints cornerback Keenan Lewis frustrated over contract and letting go of key players, threatens hold out | News | The Advocate — Baton Rouge, Louisiana |

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Even Triplett has reported that
Saying Keenan isn't happy with the "team being broken apart" Sounds like someone needs to understand how the business side works New England do stuff like this all the time |
Re: Keenan Lewis frustrated over contract and letting go of key players, threatens hold out
Bye.

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Why's he being a b**** all of a sudden?
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Sooooo release him.
Simple. One less problem solved. |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Keenan Lewis is just good enough to go 7-and-9 with...
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
We could do a lot with 10 million (what he wants guaranteed) for the next three years...
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Has he never seen a player traded before?
Did all the Steelers players start crying when he signed with us? |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
FWIW,
I think this is more about Lofton getting released than Graham. I can understand that. While Lofton has his limitations, he was an amazing leader. |

Wtf is going on?!

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
You want to know what all these bold moves are about today?!?
***NO MORE GUARANTEED CONTRACTS*** "you keep what you kill" |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Sean should say keep your mouth shut you wasn't that good last year either and the same can happen to your ass.
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Reports say that the FO rang around teams asking for deals with a number of starters
From the players twitter accounts Cam Jordan and Jimmy Graham were among the names, want to bet that Keenan Lewis was also mentioned and he got wind of it? That's why he might feel unsafe? Be a pro man, change is inevitable, whining over social media makes you look pathetic and that's not the guy I thought he would be. No one is safe after last year, Even Keenan struggled quite a bit. |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Bye Felicia. Get it or get out.
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
This is not a good time for any Saints player to be *****in' about anything. Lewis needs to shut up before he gets into Paytons doghouse and get himself traded . He signed the contract, now deal with it.

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Something to remember: the Patriots won the Super Bowl with two free agent CB's.

Know what. he was the couche bag running his mouth before the falcons game.
What can we get for him? |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
This is a very fine line...the difference between NE and us is that they have plenty of leadership and good coaches....us....well...it obvious. I don't know what to think....to blow up the team now...our window is falling on its own....appears they might have some divison on this team now.

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
It is dumb and if his agent is telling him to say these things he shouldn't listen. He signed his contract and is playing for his hometown team. Peyton and loomis aren't ****ing around so he should keep his mouth shut.

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
He's probably gone now for be atch in.
Should've kept your mouth shut. If they'll deal jimmy and cut Curtis they'll send you away too... |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
There's nothing like some cold hard cash to fix some hurt feelings eh Keenan?
I ain't mad at ya... but you can kick rocks too. |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
is this insight into the players we are keeping and letting go?
veterans leaders are out the door and head cases are staying? the number one concern we had at the end of the season? can you blame him? |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Maybe we are trying to get a veteran defender who can lead?

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Maybe he was fine playing for a 7-9 team.

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract

The first tweet from NFL Network said "Saints on the phone enquiring about deals for some starters, one name mentioned was Jimmy Graham" Then Cam Jordan put on twitter something like - not going to lie, I was nervous there. |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
I hope they know what they're doing. I've always liked Keenan but I'm not sure what to think about him when he's running his mouth on social media. Didn't he learn anything from Jr?

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Wrong Time Keenan, Wrong Time...
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Why release when you can trade???
|
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Wait what^

Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Keenan's agent isn't dumb. Keenan Lewis is about to be 29 years old and he's still in the tail end of his prime. He's usually all these moves to force the Saints hand to either give him a new contract or let him go so he can capitalize in this free agent market. A 29 year old corner is much more attractive than a 31-32 year old one entering back into the market. He's locked into a very reason rate until the end of 2017.
This is strictly a money grab. |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
Revis?

Katherine Terrell @Kat_Terrell
Look, I'll say it again. Lewis is very emotional. But it's probably unsettling to any player to see good teammates leave. Katherine Terrell @Kat_Terrell · 43m 43 minutes ago FWIW, Keenan has updated his Instagram posts, says "I want to be here, probably more than any Saint player ever."I just want to know. I would be here and I'm wrong smh. My family want to know, not guess. I would die for my team, If we was 0-16."" |
Re: Keenan Lewis demands Saints guarantee contract
I'm hearing we're inquiring about Brandon Browner.
