Saints Place Vilma on IR

Wonder if Butler still has a shot to come back. If this ends Vilma's career then the same must go for smith.

Thankfully we have no need for Smith or Vilma. They both had great runs and are set for life with rings.

Regular-Season PUP

A player who finishes the preseason still on the PUP list can then be placed on the regular-season PUP list. Such players must sit out the first six games their team plays. At that point, teams have a five-week window in which to allow the player to begin practicing; from the day the player begins practicing, teams have an additional 21-day window in which to decide whether to activate the player to the 53-man roster. If either of those deadlines pass, the player must remain on the PUP list for the remainder of the season.[1]

Wow, so he can wait until week 14 to activate or IR him. Wow, thats a lot of rehab time. 7 months of rehab. He could be ready for a postseason run.

Thanks for everything vilma, you were the leader of our defense ever since you signed with us and brought a great attitude to the D

I believe that was his last game as a saint

Happy trails, Vilma! Sorry it had to end this way, but maybe he can stay with the organization as a coach or something. Whatever happens, I hope he is as successful in what he does as he was with the Saints.

Sad reality of NOT FOR LONG league. It is hard to see good player come to the end of the run

Exactly. Sean did right by Jon.

One of the great things about Coach Payton that will never make the headlines.

Sad to see, as that's the last time he plays for us, or probably anybody for that matter. Would like to see him on the staff some where, as he has some good leadership qualities and very smart to boot. Considering all he's done for this organization and put up with in all that Bounty Gate junk, this is one respectable dude.

Not only did he put up with he fought against the bounty stuff and exposed Goddell.. I'll wait till after the season to say goodbye. We still got games to win!
