Re: Colston separated his shoulder
 
Everyone on here wishes Colston the best, man has sacrificed his body for a long time, basically playing TE which is other than RB, the most brutal position in football. I know he's a WR but he runs TE routes and constantly gets nailed. The man has paid his dues and some. All the respect in the world. I hope he recovers. I don't know why he has struggled catching balls but it's likely injuries are catching up to him. Unfortunate but I hope he retires a Saint.

Every thing that skymike said.

Colston played tough. And over the years he has taken his fair share of licks to catch throws that were not on the numbers.

If this is how it comes to an end then Thank You Colston. Thanks for being team first, "me" second. Thanks for bringing a championship to New Orleans and thanks for giving your all each and every Sunday

Just more foolishness from the coaching staff. It was obvious he was hurt in the game, and a guy like Colston isn't going to take himself out just like Brees. The coaching staff should have pulled him so he didn't further hurt himself, which might have happen.

As for moving forward; Colston was having an awful year and might be done after this it's a shame for Colston but he is another player we need to move away from. Love everything he did as a Saint.

We need to sign another WR. We only have 3. Colston is in my top 5 of all time favorites. So underrated!

WR should have been addressed because now we are paying the price

I understand why Stills was let go (attitude issues) but you don't just let go of the leading receiver without addressing the position .

Cooks is not a number 1 receiver, he's a gadget player and I think we need to use him to his strengths more, he's not getting nearly enough touches on offense.

We don't have a number 1 receiver and Whilst we always played spread offense, when we need a play - Colston would make it. That made him our Number 1, however, Colston is done....he's offers nothing but opportunities to kill drives now.

We need an AJ green, Alshon Jeffrey, Julio Jones type of receiver and we need an O line that can block someone.

We need possession WR and they bring back Morgan. :confused:

I am quite sure the coaching staff knows what we need in the next draft and I would expect WR is top on the list.
