Saints expected to sign Tackle Khalif Barnes (Underhill: Saints bringing Barnes back 10/26 - updated) (2 Viewers)

When did Gwacham get hurt? What is his injury?
 
So I assume that a terribly out of shape 320+ pound lineman was able to get into shape in the last 3 weeks...

Yes if you have ever played a sport or some intense activity you would know this is very do able. He was out of shape for NFL standards but even at 320 lbs would run laps around most on this site. It's not like he was just doing nothing for a year and decided to get in shape. Most likely wasn't working out as hard as he should have been while not getting in shape practicing with a team. He wasn't in game shape which a few weeks of the right conditioning can no doubt get you up to speed. Having Coach Payton tell him if he gets in proper shape for when the Saints might need him a phone call worth a few hundred thousand dollars is likely to be ringing sometime during the season.
 
Isn't this the 3rd time they've checked him out. Wow we are so desperate.

I would think that he would be tired of getting jerked around.:idunno:
