Kamara said months ago that there had been talks. I really expect a deal after there is a better idea about next year's cap figure. It will be a minimum of $175M plus any unused cap from this season. For example, the Patriots jut got back $35M in cap for the players that opted out. The deadline to opt out is 4:00 PM Eastern tomorrow so we'll know more.
