Chris Ivory (hamstring, questionable) is not expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
He isn't 100 percent and Mark Ingram is back, so Ivory may have been scratched anyway. Coach Sean Payton has made it clear that the Saints won't activate three tailbacks on game days. Darren Sproles and Pierre Thomas are locked in. Source: Mike Triplett on Twitter It's been going on since college... this should be of no surprise. |

What do you expect..its a hamstring.. dude hasn't played all year .... why do people love to hate on Ivory he wasnt even drafted!....Ingram was hurt to oh but thats ok ..he is our prize.... Ivory looks more explosive already..Give it a rest..he will be fine...Foster has been fighting a bad hammy all year..so has Johnson for the Texans...would you ditch them?
Blame the training staff.. |

Ivory played three years for Washington State Cougars football. Limited by injuries, in 22 games he had 91 rushes for 534 yards and 4 touchdowns, as well as 23 kickoff returns averaging 22.8 yards. When the coaches who had recruited him were replaced by a new coaching staff, Ivory found himself far down on the Cougars' depth chart. In August 2009, Ivory was dismissed from the Washington State team for violating team rules. In Ivory's final year of college football, he had 39 rushes for 223 yards in five games before suffering a season-ending knee injury. It has been this way throughout his entire football career, the Saints knew this but I guess the limited time he would see playing time would outweigh all of his injuries. Unlike last season we are blessed with some awesome depth in the backfield. I do not wish to get rid of Ivory but it is ok to be frustrated.... |

I don't think the injury is that bad. I'm sure if we needed him, he would play. But, we don't need him because we have three other backs. I think we should keep all backs on the roster and just rest the one that's least healthy each week. Just like their doing.

We ought to be thankful we've got an effective running back in Cris Ivory...nevermind the hammy. I don't know why we're grumbling....almost every team this year had running backs who have been injured. I don't care that its after just one game....we're a better team with him than without him.
