Re: Saints Trying to Trade Delvin Breaux
Initially diagnosed with a contusion, Breaux on Monday underwent X-rays that revealed a more serious injury, according to a source, though still not an ailment considered long-term in nature. The source declined to say the exact injury with which Breaux is suffering, but the cornerback was seen at the team facility Monday afternoon in a walking boot and using crutches. Sounds like he has a leg fracture. |

I understand that it can be problematic telling the two apart until the swelling has subsided.![]()

Re: Saints Trying to Trade Delvin Breaux
![]() I think it is more a message that if you stay on the sidelines, we don't need you. If the guy is sincerely hurt and I could only imagine if it is a bone bruise/stress fracture, playing can definitely make it worse. I don't see what we can get for him that has any real value. |
