Honestly, I'd be surprised to see him play again in 2022.

Assuming you are correct, what advantage does putting him on IR give the team? Is there a roster spot involved. Honestly wondering Major.

The Saints could use O-line help (Peat could be out again) &/or depth as well as adding another veteran WR. I'm not sure how severe MT turf toe is but that could take months to recover from if not longer.

We are needing healthy contributors on the roster badly.

Yes, it could take months IF it was a grade three injury. The fact they said the original timetable was only four weeks indicates it is a grade two. Had it been a grade three he would have undoubtedly been placed on the IR right away.
