Saints wide receiver Marques Colston missed his fourth straight practice and starting right tackle Jon Stichcomb sat out of practice Tuesday as the team with through nearly 2 ½ hours of drills.
Colston, who continues to rest his surgically-repaired right knee, was on the practice field, but he did little else other than serve as a player/coach.
Saints Coach Sean Payton downplayed the significance of Colston's knee, saying that he expects Colston back on the practice field soon. He also said that Stinchcomb was simply resting his left knee.

We don't need that sort of destructive negativism in the locker room & SP knows it.

I really think we have the coaching staff and the the team to make T.O as happy as little school girl..he wants a ring..not to get 100 catches..and he has the utmost respect for Drew..

I'm actually for bringing him in on a 1 year contract. That would mean he would be on his best behaviour.

I'd rather play with just 10 men than have that tumor on the team. Besides that, he's in a lot worse shape than Marques.

Meachem and Moore can take up the slack if Colston misses any time. Devery is looking pretty good too so no, we don't need TO.
