New Orleans Saints dual-threat running back Alvin Kamara learned of NFL college Christian McCaffrey's big payday live while playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on Twitch. McCaffrey, 23, agreed to a four-year contract extension with his Carolina Panthers on Monday, netting the former Stanford rusher an average of $16 million a year.
The 24-year-old Kamara, the Saints' three-time Pro Bowl running back and receiving threat, reacted in song and celebration to McCaffrey's big day (via 23ABC News' Matt Lively on Twitter).

McCaffrey's deal with the Panthers makes him the highest-paid running back in NFL history—and the Saints will unlikely be far away from the price tag on McCaffrey when Kamara hits free agency in spring 2021.
Kamara rushed for 797 yards, scoring five touchdowns, while recording 533 receiving yards, scoring once in the air, during the 2019 season for New Orleans.
