Kiko is a warrior, answers the bell, tough SOB but ...

This is ACL tear number 3 & he's 30. It's going to cost the Saints almost 9M against the cap however if you let him go, the savings is closer to 7.5M.

KA was extremely solid in Black and Gold but you gotta be careful spending that much coin on a guy with so many knee (see Kikaha) injuries.

I think he's gone sir.

Man if this guy could only stay healthy. I would release him then try to resign him at a lower rate if close to being healthy. I love this guy

I hate to admit it but I think you're right.
