Dang. That sucks.

If we get past the Bucs he’s a must at GB.

I'll never understand how you can play a guy after the injury occurs in one game, and then sit him for the next. And, to top it off, it's a playoff game.. so you can't say you're "saving him for this and that team" .

Looking like Jbob was right.

Short yardage situations will suffer.

I never saw his post but that was my first thought as well.

Honestly not a big loss today at all. Would be a big loss against GB if he wasn’t able to go.

Seems Murray too.

Taysom Hill, Latavius Murray unlikely to play - ProFootballTalk

The Saints will be at less than full strength today against the Buccaneers. Saints quarterback/running back/receiver/special teamer Taysom Hill and running back Latavius Murray are both unlikely to play today, according to NFL Network. Both were listed as questionable. As PFT previously...

Jbob said he was done for the year so he still has a ways to go before being right. And I know we clearly were trying to hide this until game day but I think he had to practice some this week in order to pull that off, no?

On game day your adrenaline is rushing. You can easily not feel the full affect of an injury in the moment. And you have to go more with the players word because you can test it but not with your full array of tests.

Our Oline & Dline better dominate this game if we're going to win today.

thats always the case. The good news is, we should.

By the way, isn't this why we can't be 100% on board with him as our starting QB going forward? He's got that injury history from college and this dude just can't help going full tilt, which is why we love him but why an injury was inevitable like CMC's injury was with Panthers.

We can never catch a break

It happened with Drew also. He threw a TD pass against SF with 11 broken ribs and a collapsed lung. Swelling occurs after the fact and more tests can be run after the game to determine the extent of the injury. If you remember Taysom in the second half he was missing his usual burst. There was 1 play where he did an end around jet sweep down by the goal line where a healthy Taysom would’ve gotten in the end zone.
