Saints hosted RB Kareem Hunt and LB Anthony Barr (Upd: Hunt leaves Colts/Vikings visits w/ no deal; Giants cancel Barr visit)

I don’t think Barr immediately walks into starting SLB over Baun/Jackson or main situational blitzer right away without any camp to get on the same page with his unit like other vets might have became starters just before Week 1 in the past though. Especially on vet minimum salary in all likelihood. He’s mainly vet depth for Demario’s injury and would share snaps at those positions while he has potential to increase his role in the short term.

So, what is Demario's injury?

I was on IG seeing another Saints feed and someone commented saying Demario tore his achillies and the Saints are just hiding it.

My thinking is Allen wouldn't say we're looking for another LB behind Pete and Demario if something like that was actually the case..

I also think the Saints wouldn't hide something like that either. We put guys on IR the next day all the time.
