And that's basically what the article says Breaux is saying is that he will be available when that period has expired...

Crawley is playing well, but a healthy Breaux is better.
Someone is going to be unemployed soon. Williams? Harris?

He can practice tomorrow, but can't play until the TB game 11/5

Sorry. I know he's a local guy who overcame a serious injury, but the Saints cannot just sit Crawley for Breaux because Breaux had a good season in 2015.

That may have been the case last year. But not now:

#1: Lattimore
#2: Crawley
#3: Breaux (when healthy)
#4: Williams

Someone is going to be unemployed soon. Williams? Harris?

The Saints had better operate on the premise that you cannot have enough decent healthy secondary players. Keep all that are capable of being productive on the field and demote someone who really had no chance of seeing the field.

i love how Breaux has gone from the saints answer to Julio Jones to a scrub.

I don't know that he has become a scrub, but I do know that Crawley is playing extremely well, and you are not going to (should not) give his spot to someone who had a good season in 2015. And sure as hell you are not going to give him Lattimore's spot. So, at best, Breaux can come in as the 3rd CB, IF he wins it in practice, which I doubt.

If Breaux is completely ready, the Saints will figure out a way to get him on the field. Could also use him to play the center deep safety position from time to time if needed.

In all fairness, Crawley has shut down Julio Jones as well and more recently.

Don't think Breaux will be named starter de facto because of his status prior to injury...

But hey, if he wins out in practice and performs on the field - it's all about getting the best cornerbacks out on the field...

I'm just tickled that this forum is arguing about the best corners rather than who's worse, sucks more...
