METAIRIE — He was the star of the Saints’ preseason.
But now Saints rookie Travaris Cadet looks to be in the spotlight when the final score matters. Darren Sproles, who set the NFL all-purpose yardage record last season, is out indefinitely with a broken hand, the team announced on Friday, and his kickoff return duties, plus possibly his versatile role in the backfield, are likely to be assumed by Cadet, a free agent from Appalachian State who earned a roster spot in the preseason by displaying precisely those skills. “It’s a big blow to lose a guy like Darren who can do so many things,” Cadet, an undrafted free agent from Appalachian State, said after the Saints (2-5) completed practice for Monday night’s game against Philadelphia (3-4). “It kind of changes up the game plan a little bit. “Right now, they’re telling me I’ll be pretty much doing what he did.” Read more: Saints |

Re: Saints’ Travaris Cadet likely to assume versatile back role
Let Ingram get going, do not stray from the run game
If you give Pierre and Ingram 12-15 carries each, they will do good things Ingram is the type of back that needs multiple carries to get going |

Cadet doesn't have anything to do with Ingram or PT... Or Ivory for what it's worth.
I've a feeling Ivory is gong to take some of Ingram's roll. |
