From what I've read, the Sproles injury is very minor. The Eagles have a bye this week and they think Sproles will be back after the bye. He may not even miss a game.

you really think that is the only reason? I don't. injuries and blah blah blah we have beaten this horse to death. system or what ever Ingram is not and never has proven he was worth the price we paid for him. If he became the back we thought we were getting when we drafted him he would be signed today

I expect the saints to try to sign him and i am cool with it. But on the priority list i do not see him having a very high ranking. every year a udfa is pushing him for playing time
