Saints DE Foster returns to practice on limited basis

He sure would give the Saints a great rotation if he could stay healthy. Seems like he's dinged up a lot. But wow when he's in, he makes plays.

Also love the fact that several teams wanted him after the draft and he chose us.

Is he the guy from Illinois? I think I read that PT had a lot to do with him coming here

PT probably did, for a couple reasons.

PT probably talked to him about how we treat UDFAs fairly

And PT is living proof that we look at performance over draft status.

hE WAS FIRST HURT IN THE LAST PRE SEASON GAME IN MOP UP TIME IT WAS A MISTAKE FOR THE STAFF TO PLAY HIM AT THAT POINT AS EVERONE KNOWS HE HAD THE TEAM MADE.He should at that point been trated like a first round pick as he has the same pro day numbers as cameron jordan combine numbers.from that point on he has never been 100% which i think explains his string of minor hurts which has slwed him down>he will be a starter in time an shoud sit out the rams game if not close to 90%.
