Saints signed OT William Robinson

Saints signed OT William Robinson.

Veteran roster yo-yo Greg Camarillo was released in a corresponding move. Robinson spent time on the Saints practice squad last season before joining the Jaguars in December. He will add depth with Zach Strief (groin) and Charles Brown (knee) nursing injuries.

Makes sense but did we ever designate anyone to IR with the ability to return this year? Seems like this would have been a good tag for Strief since the groin injury would probably be 6 to 8 weeks to heal for someone who needs leg strength.

I think the Saints did that with Vilma; I could be wrong. He would be the logical choice.

Not a good season to be a Saints' offensive lineman... they've already had Strief, Brown, Tupou, Tiller, and Jones go down with an injury - that I can remember at the moment.

Here's to hoping they won't get anymore injuries to that line!

Vilma wasn't on the IR list, he was on the special list for "suspension handed down by the commissioner" or something like that. I can't remember what the exact wording was for the list he was on, but it wasn't the IR list.

No that was the PUP list

We didn't give anybody the IR designated to return tag... at least not that I'm aware of.

Actually, I thought Harris did a decent job.........as good as anyone else has.
