The New Orleans Saints have officially traded running back Reggie Bush to the Miami Dolphins. The deal was finally completed when Bush agreed to a two year contract woth $9.75 million with the Dolphins. I’m not sure at this point what the Saints got in return for Bush. As soon as I find out I will update this post.
The Saints had made up their mind that they were going to need Bush to restructure his contract if he wanted to remain in New Orleans. Now it seems to me that Bush was unwilling to do so and in the end was traded to the Dolphins who required him to redo his deal anyway. I don’t understand why he just didn’t work out a new contract with the Saints and stay there. He must have felt that it was time to move on from the Saints.
Nonetheless Bush will get a fresh start in sunny Miami and hope that he can be enough of a difference maker to help the Dolphins be a contender.
UPDATE: Part of the compensation for Bush is safety Jonathon Amaya according to ESPN
