Also added DB Jordan Brown today. Camp body I would imagine.

Jameis Winston Injured On Monday
Unfortunately, they might have to come to terms with it following the latest news. Winston appeared to tweak his foot during 7-on-7 drills today.
The Saints quarterback wound up leaving today's practice session early. Thankfully, he did not have to leave on the cart. Head coach Dennis Allen later announced that Winston rolled his ankle, but didn't suffer serious injury.

Who you got? Falcons will be outright cutting Debo soon.

Jackson appears to be in a red shirt year, Werner is still rehabbing and Baun is apparently "hurt".

I heard Nick Underhill mention Eric Wilson has looked well at camp so far ... so there's that.

The new kid at LB, Jackson, was placed on IR, I think. We'll just have to see. It's still early.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

While I agree it would be nice to have a little more depth at LB, I can't help but keep coming back to something rezburna mentioned a couple of weeks ago. He said he could see the Saints relying heavily upon not only the nickel, but also the dime and even up to the dollar. I can see them eyeing the depth at safety to cover as LB depth. A 4-1-6 is very probable at times. Demario is so good that you can even look at that as a 4-7 or quarter.

Yes, we need healthy bodies at LB, for sure, but I can see us going into the season with one less LB and one more DB than usual on the 53.

It's one of the few weak spots on the team. I said it earlier but Andrew Dowell might be a surprise player at LB. I'm hoping that he and Elliss take the "next step" this year.

I hope not. I ate the cheese on this kid and was ready to watch him play this preseason.
