Loved him like Deuce...this one hurts. I agree with it, knew it was coming, but it sucks.

Even though we knew this was coming, it still sucks to read this news

bobdog86 · 02-29-2016, 05:54 PM

This is the side of football that sucks......even though we know it happens all the time. I just hope he's done done and retires with only playing for one team, which is pretty rare these days.

Great WR.

I never expected them to keep Colston another year. For all he has done in the past, there was no real reason to bring him back. He just kind of gets in the way when he's out there. Makes a play once in a while, but he doesn't do anything that can't be done by pretty much any receiver. He simply did not age very well on the field.

But I enjoyed his good years and wish him the best.

an the end of an saints era is almost upon us. slowly things are changing and now the pieces that are leaving were the heart and soul of what made it so special. what a class act.

Like a death in a family..no matter how much you prepare for the news, it still hurts😢

Thank you, Marques!

Really hard to imagine him playing for any other team.

Definitely my favorite WR to play the game and easily the most classy. Hard to understand why he never made a pro bowl.

Hope he come back as a coach.

He would make an outstanding WR coach, he learned from one of the best in Curtis Johnson.
