The Saints promoted linebacker Adam Bighill from the practice squad Thursday.



Bighill played 14 special teams plays in the season opener, but the Saints cut him before signing him to the practice squad. The former CFL star had a team-leading 20 tackles, a sack and an interception in the preseason.

Lasco would've made more sense as solid RB depth and as a great gunner in kick coverage - wondering if he's not in the doghouse this year?

Nothing, he became 3rd string RB so his ST snaps may be reduced accordingly, and Bihill fits the bill

Re: LB Bighill activated

There's just something about this guy that I just know by instinct that he's a play-maker with a heart for winning. On paper he's a little under-sized and he's a little slower than some of your outstanding NFL players at the LB position. But I'm betting this guy is going to adapt & make plays if he stays healthy.
He might be the only reason I tune in to watch Sunday.... I've just about had it with most of the over-paid whining brats.

Hoping he sees some snaps on D. He was everywhere during preseason.

Just a good football player. Put him on the field and watch him make plays.
