Saints Notebook: Injuries Pile Up
Saints Notebook: Injuries pile up
Web Posted: 09/26/2005 12:00 AM CDT San Antonio Express-News Last week, it was kick returner Michael Lewis, cornerback Fakhir Brown and offensive lineman Jermane Mayberry. On Sunday, the New Orleans Saints added three more significant injury casualties to their crowded training room. Kick returner Aaron Stecker, subbing for Lewis, injured his left Achilles' tendon while fumbling the opening kickoff. Strong safety Jay Bellamy hurt his right shoulder in the third quarter. And defensive tackle Brian Young left the game with an injured left arch. Saints coach Jim Haslett said Stecker and Bellamy are both considered "out" for next week's game against Buffalo. Young's status is uncertain. With Lewis out for the year and Stecker unavailable, Fred McAfee is the Saints' top return man. Brown (knee) and Mayberry (shoulder) were both inactive Sunday. Dirty laundry: After the game, many of the Saints were still talking about the penalty that cost them an apparent third-quarter touchdown on a punt return by Donte' Stallworth. Nate Poole was penalized for blocking the Vikings' Willie Offord in the back, but replays showed the contact was marginal at best. Poole said Offord was bragging about his acting job on the play. "He told me, 'I faked them,'" Poole said. "He was laughing." - Mike Finger http://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/f...s.72d1915.html 8) |
