Jarvis Landry is important to the Saint’s strong offense
Landry said he was able to take a firm decision to join the Saints. The talks with GM Mickey Loomis, Head Coch Dennis Allen, and Quarterback Jameis Winston played a major role in helping him to do the same. This month, another big player from Louisiana, Tyrann Mathieu, joined New Orleans Saints after the Kansas City Chiefs relieved him.
