New Orleans Saints news and updates on the team from the week of July 20, 2020.

Michael Thomas wants Clowney

New Orleans Saints All-Pro WR, Michael Thomas, took to social media on Saturday and cast his vote in favor of the team bringing in DE Jadeveon Clowney . New Orleans' Sports Overtime podcast host, Nader Mirfiq initially reported Clowney's interest in the New Orleans Saints as a landing spot in May. Clowney has remained a free-agent without accepting an offer from a team.  

Can the Saints afford Clowney? The cap space for New Orleans is $8.77M. The team has not signed any of their 2020 rookie class draftees. Fitting Clowney into the mix with limited space may be the overriding issue for the team. Would Clowney sign at a cap-friendly deal with a potential Super Bowl-caliber team like the Saints? Let's see this week as the Saints open training camp for the rookies and veterans.
