A hard decision to make!

The defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul thanked the Saints for the short opportunity after his reported signing with the Fins’ active roster, per Ian Rapoport. Sounding utterly grateful, Paul wrote, “I would like to thank the New Orleans Saints and the organization for giving me the opportunity to play for them, I can’t even lie it was a hard decision to make.

Additionally, he even thanked all the guys in the Saints locker room for being extremely accepting and welcoming toward him. He further extended his gratitude to the coaches of the side, who for him showed great support and belief in him during the whole period he spent with the New Orleans side.
