The New Orleans Saints are back in action this Sunday as they visit the Detroit Lions and one of their former first round picks, Reggie Bush. Quarterback Drew Brees says at 2-and-3, now is the time to string some victories together…:
CUT 17 (11) “accomplish”
There’s a good chance the Saints will not have tight end Jimmy Graham for Sunday’s game against the Lions. Graham has a shoulder injury that knocked him out of a game nearly two weeks ago. Brees says that means more chances for the other tight ends and wide receivers on the roster:
CUT 18 (19) “great job”
