Saints pick up Sheldon Rankins 5th year option (1 Viewer)

Good news!

 

The team must be pleased with the rehab. This can only be taken as good news.

 

Definitely knew this was coming.

 

Good news indeed. He showed star potential last year, and it suggests that his rehab is going well.

 

Even better news.

This was a no brainer.

 

Yes this is good news. Already out of the boot, rehab must be going well. Hopefully we can get him back at 100% by midseason.

 

Choppa style, chop,chop, choppa style!!!!!

 

Smart move.

 

3 months, and 11 days since the injury. He's now OUT of a boot!! Modern Technology at its finest!
Looking forward to seeing the.... Sheldon Shimmy Shake!!! WHO DAT!!

 

When can we realistically expect him to be playing at 100%? Initially I was thinking not until December.

I'm looking forward to him pushing a guard right into a QB, preferably Matty Melt.

 

Our front office is top-shelf... and they flat know what they're doing.

As others have said: This can only be taken as good news!

WhoDat!!!!!

 

Alex Okafor messed up his achilles in the tenth game of 2017. He played all sixteen games in 2018. I figure Rankins will be back by Week 8 or so and give us half a season.

 

This was a no brainer.

TruDat!
