Is now time to trade him and/or cut our losses with him? Likely not as he does not count much against the cap.

5 things to know about the Saints' running back depth

For 2nd straight season, a member of the Saints' offense begins the season on suspension
For the second consecutive season, a key member of the Saints' offense who is entering a contract year will begin the season on suspension. Ingram, who switched agents this offseason, is coming off career highs of 1,124 yards and 12 touchdowns along with 58 receptions for 416 yards.
In 2017, then-Saints receiver Willie Snead began the season on suspension, missing the first three games because of an offseason DUI. Snead too was entering a contract year and ended up joining the Baltimore Ravens as a restricted free agent after the Saints declined to match their offer.

The Saints drafted a running back in the sixth round
The team also drafted running back Boston Scott out of Louisiana Tech in the sixth round of this year’s draft.
Scott was drafted with a special teams role in mind but he excelled as runner between the tackles later in his career for the Bulldogs.
The former walk-on played one of the best games of his career in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in the 2015 New Orleans Bowl where he rushed for more than 100 yard on just four carries.
During the draft process Scott said that teams contacting often compared him to former Saints running back Darren Sproles. Sproles enjoyed three productive seasons in New Orleans from 2011-13.
The Saints could also explore the free agent market to add another running back as several veterans including former Saints running back Adrian Peterson are still on the market.

Disappointing news.

To me that shows a culture of that kind of behavior. Seems like Payton and company need to stop looking the other way.

He’ll appeal and it get reduced to 2 or 3 like everybody else.

Cut Bait! Move on, like we did with that...safety dude. Can't remember his name.... Vascro or something like that.
