It appears the Saints will be going with Joe Horn, Devery Henderson, Donte Stallworth, Jamal Jones and Marques Colston as their receiving corps.
Horn and Stallworth started the game, while Jones and Colston lined up with the first team once Horn left the game with a bruised back. Payton made it clear that he intends for Colston, a seventh-round pick out of Hofstra in the 2006 NFL draft, to play a significant role in the passing game once the season begins. Jones signed as a free agent during the offseason and has impressed the coaching staff since training camp commenced. Henderson had been lining up with the first team throughout camp, but caught his only pass in the fourth quarter. Bethel Johnson displayed flashes of his New England Patriot days returning kick. Johnson's success ended when he coughed up the ball after a 53-yard return in the third quarter. Things might be worse than that for Johnson as he sprained his medial collateral ligament in his knee. http://www.sunherald.com/mld/sunherald/15378546.htm That leaves Hass and Chris horn to shoot out for the 6th spot. Ouch! Bethel and Beerman could probably both PUP Lance Moore back to the Practice Squad |
