The New Orleans Saints are saddened to learn of the passing of team legend Keith Mitchell.
After an outstanding career at Texas A&M, the linebacker was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Black and Gold in 1997.
He played for the Saints from 1997 through 2001 and earned Pro Bowl honors in 2000. He also played for the Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars during his professional football career.
The Saints extend their sympathies to the Mitchell family during these challenging times 🙏
Patriots owner Robert Kraft: “The last two years were the worst 31 years of my ownership. We have to change that.”

Breaking: Jarvis Landry is signing with the #Saints, per source.
The 5x Pro Bowl WR - with an impressive 43 career TDs - is from Louisiana and starred at nearby LSU.
Only 29, I’m told Landry wants to keep playing for many years. Juice is coming home! 🐯⚜️🥤
Being from New Orleans Drew Brees meant everything to us in that city..... at many times our only hope, you know to smile & feel good, to live in a winning reality.... that man gave us all life.... none of us are perfect but he was close Salute !! #9Forever@drewbrees
Saints and Pro-Bowl RB Alvin Kamara are “extremely close” to a lucrative new extension that the two sides are hoping to finalize in the next few days, per sources. The deal would silence any recent trade speculation and keep Kamara in New Orleans during the prime of his career.
I would like to apologize to my friends, teammates, the City of New Orleans, the black community, NFL community and anyone I hurt with my comments yesterday. In speaking with some of you, it breaks my heart to know… https://t.co/Jg36d0Ad0l
