Mark Ingram suffered a slight tear in his MCL vs Bucs.

Unfortunate.

MI likely out for the season with a MCL tear

Time for the UDFA former Baylor product to step up?

I don't believe he's on the practice squad any longer.

May as well see what you have in Merritt.

Yeah, it was pretty obvious he went out of bounds like that because he was hurt. He immediately went to one knee with the training staff surrounding him. I don’t even blame him. He shouldn’t have been on the field. They should have addressed RB at the deadline. Hines was available and we probably didn’t even make a phone call.

What was our medical staff and coaching thinking here?

Probably thinking he was ready to play based on medical examinations and the player’s input. He had 6 carries prior to that play and had no problems. His y/c average was way above Kamara’s.

Like Boston just said, he probably told them he was good and they took his word for it.

I get it and I understand MI is a warrior (probably why he returned hurt) and was full of adrenaline however I'm starting to 2nd guess anything the Saints medical staff does as of late.

I'm no doctor but sometimes you have to save players from themselves.

Well Major, because we are losing, people are questioning EVERYTHING and its questioned with a negative bias.
