There were rumors at the end of last season that Alvin Kamara might consider retirement.

The New Orleans Saints also didn't look like a team too convinced their running back would be around in the long run, because they signed Travis Etienne from the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency.

Kamara, though, apparently doesn't mind the move.

He spoke on Terron Armstead's podcast and provided his thoughts, which were in essence, the more the merrier.

“I think a lot of people be thinking there’s a beef or something when moves like this happen,” Kamara said. “It’s like, shoot, I couldn’t be happier. One, my boy got paid, and two, ain’t nothing but some help in the backfield. That’s the name of the game. One person can’t do it by themselves. I’m cool with it. Whichever direction that we can take it, I’m with it. I haven’t had too much a chance to talk to him, but definitely excited that he’s got a fleur-de-lis on his helmet, and he got paid.”
