The offseason continues to get sweeter for Terron Armstead, who just received a pay bump in February due to the NFLPA’s Proven Performance Escalator under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Armstead’s base salary increased from $705K to $1.69 million.
On the Saints offensive line, there was no one better than the Arkansas Pine-Bluff product. Head coach Sean Payton said emphatically at the end of December that he wouldn’t trade Armstead for anything, and there wass good reason for his statement. Armstead played hurt a lot of the 2015 season, and was still extremely effective.
