Mark Ingram might be leaving the Saints to play for the Ravens, but his heart will always be in New Orleans.
Yesterday, the 29-year-old Saints running back took to Instagram with a heartfelt “thank you” for fans, the Bensons, Sean Payton, and more.

“Who Dat Nation is special,” Ingram writes. “I will always be grateful.”
Ingram also praised his former teammates, saying “Nobody will understand the brotherhood. Nobody will understand the love I have for my brothers.”
On March 13, Ingram signed a three-year, $15 million contract with the Baltimore Ravens, ending his eight-year run with the Saints. It was a move that has been met with dismay by both fans, and fellow Saints players.
