I'm glad he got his contract and he'll be in NO for a long time to come

I've always felt that a coffin corner punter is incredibly valuable.

Damnit, Anger is going to command so much more than this when his rookie contract is up.

Nice job by the Saints locking Morstead up.

Good move by the Saints! From a roster moves standpoint, this season looks to be the best since 2006.

There is a reason they call him...


"LEG"ATRON

EDIT: also...I think he deserves the money for "ambush" alone.

He had never kicked an onside kick before in any game. On any level of football. And he was money. Cool

One of the better punters in the game. I would say 6 years is to long for a punter but I think it's justified for someone as good as Morstead.

This is his last year, so it's really a 7 year 22 some million?

Not a bad deal at all.

It's probably back-loaded with a decent chunk guaranteed.

NO is really banking on the tv deal.

Or...maybe our GM is really good with contracts. He has been the whole time in NO.
