Totally sucks for Unger though.

****! ****! This damn team... I'm so tired of this injury crap.

What the hell kind of foot injury will take 4-6 months to heal?! Is this where Jack Allen steps in and becomes our next undrafted superstar?

With that time span it might be something like a Lisfranc injury.

+1. Wonder why the Saints medical staff waited this late for a decision (surgery) to be made?

That is the million dollar question.
I get wanting to avoid surgery, but he hurt it early December and has had 5 months to heal on its own. Don't you pull the trigger in March, not May?
