Earlier Monday, Christian McCaffrey became the NFL's highest-paid running back of all-time, signing a four-year, $64 million extension with the Carolina Panthers. The shockwaves of this massive deal are already being felt throughout the NFL.

When the deal broke, New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was live on the video game streaming platform Twitch, and his immediate reaction to the McCaffrey extension was broadcast to the world.

Kamara, a three-time Pro-Bowl running back is set to gain a lot of money from McCaffrey's new contract, and his "here I come!" reaction makes it clear that he knows what the deal means for him.

The record contract sets a new standard for paying star running backs, and gives his agent substantial leverage when negotiating a new contract with the Saints.

Kamara is currently on the last year of his rookie deal, and is set to be negotiating a contract extension this summer. This puts the Saints in a tough situation, as they only have about $3.5 million in cap space at this time.

The Tennessee product is set to make a lot of money with his next contract, but it is now unclear whether or not it will be with the Saints.

With Drew Brees growing older by the minute and Kamara potentially being traded, Saints fans could be in for some tough times.
