Saints RB Bush unable to practice on leg, likely out Sunday

Maybe it's true but coaches play a chess match with injured players every week and I don't see how this one is any different. I'm willing to bet he'll be on the field come Monday. He's young, healthy, good diet. I'm going with it's healed. Even if it's not, the Steelers are going to have to use practice time to account for him either way.

He only had a stress fracture. There was no damage to any soft tissue. The doctors would not have cleared him if it wasn't healed enough to be stable.
