Report: Saints’ Brandin Cooks out for season | ProFootballTalk

The Saints have lost their top wide receiver for the rest of the season.

Brandin Cooks, the first-round draft pick who is the leading wide receiver in New Orleans this year, is being placed on season-ending injured reserve, Field Yates of ESPN reports. Cooks was injured in Sunday’s loss to the Bengals.

Season ending IR? I thought this was a 4-5 week injury? Have we thrown in the towel for any chance of post season play or are we starting fresh next year with our 1st rounder?

Help me out fellas.

There's no towel. Next man up. You play as hard as you can, if you don't win, then at least you gave your all.

Never quit.

Cooks was the only real WR we had. Mid season crisis, coach young GF midlife crisis, ISIS...uhhhhhh. If I was Cher I'd turn back time to 2009.

I guess what I was eluding to is that if Cooks has a 4 week healing type injury and there are 6 games left, why was he placed on season ending IR?

If we can turn the ship around, he would be back by the Falcons game, no?
Oh well ... Que sera, sera.

Changed from thumb to wrist. Must have been more serious.

Has to be more than a hairline fracture for IR. Must have been a real bad. A real break can take a year to heal.

This is bad news..... Wrap it up folks let's talk about the draft

Cooks isn't the only receiver we have.
4-6 weeks, plus another couple shaking off the rust. It's the right move. Besides we need the roster spot.

I'm more interested in how the O line and defense respond.

Time to make some lemonade.

We are the walking wounded. Give some of those kids the keys to the kingdom and let's see what we've got. No better time than now.

Extended tryout! Who wants to be a walk on?

True. It's "s**t or get off the pot" time for Toon and Morgan (think he comes back in a week or two)

It just gets curiouser and curiouser.

I'd rather the team wrapped him in ice than rushed him back and risked the chance of a re-break and damaging him long term.
Cooks only turned 21 in September and has 12-15 years as a Saints if healthy.

We have officially begun the end of year, season done, place on IR, coach saving process

The front 7 on defense has to step up for the Saints or they won't win another game. The secondary is a bunch of scrubs as it is now. The Bengals made a point of stopping Ingram and Brees couldn't win it in the passing game. With Cooks out, teams will single outside, bump Graham at the line, and bring an extra guy down in the box. It ain't gonna be pretty.

A broken bone takes 3 months to fully heal... No use in risking a re-injury with 2 games left in the season(initial time table)...

This was my fear in drafting Cooks...

I get that it could happen to any player; but a guy his size?!?

Anyways, get well, we need his speed and we need to get him more touches once he's back in the fold...

And not one of our WR's on the PS are ready to move up and handle being on the 53 man roster. Crap! :brood:

A broke thumb really has no relevance to his size; can happen to anyone especially receivers...

Well we really needed a punt returner to replace Cooks. Neither Coleman nor Jones return punts.

Had it been Colston or Stills, I think you would have seen Coleman or Jones brought up.

What play did Cooks hurt himself on?

The next to the last play catch in garbage time?

Tragic
