New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is very interested in how his team will handle their quarterback situation with three players at the position being free agents this offseason.

Appearing on PFT Live (h/t Pro Football Talk's Charean Williams), Kamara thinks the Saints "have got to print some more money" to retain Drew Brees, Teddy Bridgewater and Taysom Hill.

"Everybody wondering now what Drew is going to do, and I always say it he can play as long as he wants to and Teddy we saw what he did when he had to answer the call and then Taysom he is like the jack of all trades and he does it all," he said.

Those comments come in the wake of Kamara telling NFL Network's Ian Rapoport on the RapSheet and Friends podcast there "might be something going on" with his contract.



Kamara will be playing on the final year of his rookie deal in 2020 and has a base salary of $977,500. Even though the three-time Pro Bowler has greatly outplayed that deal, he could be forced to wait for a new contract simply due to New Orleans' economic situation.

Brees hasn't officially announced he's returning in 2020 but told NFL Network's Jane Slater he will only play for the Saints if he comes back. The 41-year-old signed a two-year, $50 million extension the last time he was a free agent in March 2018.

Bridgewater figures to be a sought-after commodity from teams in need of a quarterback. He went 5-0 in 2019 when Brees was injured and threw for 1,384 yards with nine touchdowns.

Hill, who is a restricted free agent, has been a jack-of-all-trades for the Saints since making his NFL debut in 2017. He has played primarily at quarterback, running back and wide receiver, but also lined up on defense and special teams as a kick returner.

Spotrac estimates the Saints as having $12.75 million in cap space for 2020.

New Orleans has been one of the most successful teams during the regular season over the past three seasons. The team owns a 37-11 record since 2017 with three straight NFC South titles, but they have failed to reach the Super Bowl during this stretch.
