New Orleans is trying to repeat as champion this season, but it is going to have to make some significant decisions next season. Running back Reggie Bush, who helped New Orleans win its first Super Bowl, is scheduled to make $11.3 million in base salary next season but nobody around the league expects Bush's contract to stand the way it is, not with Bush being injured much of this season and rookie Chris Ivory developing into a reliable running back. After this season, Bush and the Saints will have to agree upon a restructured contract or New Orleans will have to release Bush. He is not the only running back in New Orleans whose future there is uncertain. Pierre Thomas, who missed the majority of this season with a torn tendon in his ankle, is scheduled to become a free agent after this season and if Thomas leaves, it would make bringing back Bush that much more important, but either way, the Saints have some significant running back questions.
