A Saints fan who traveled to St. Louie for yesterday's game sent me this video of a Who Dat rally on Rams turf: And in breaking news today, Who Dats breathed a sigh of relief when the Saints revealed cornerback Tracy Porter's injury is a sprain to his left medial collateral ligament, which means he is likely to return this regular season. The MCL sprain is not nearly as severe as a season-ending ACL injury and the Saints have already seen this year running backs Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell return from MCL injuries and defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis due to return from one in a matter of one or two weeks. The only difference to Porter's injury is the apparent pain he was in for such a long time after it happened, meaning he's still hurt pretty bad and it could take a lot longer than the minimal four weeks for him to bounce back and possibly push the six-week timeframe. But he's very young and should be OK, even if we can't count on the Saints' front office to be totally honest about the injury's extent. In the meantime, rookie Malcom Jenkins should get plenty of opportunities to prove he can translate those college shutdown corner abilities into NFL capability.
