Bush Misses Another Practice -- Thu Nov 19 7:00 pm --
Leaves Week 11 Status In Doubt | Tailback Reggie Bush missed another day of practice with some swelling in his left knee, leaving his status for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay in doubt.
Bush's left knee - the same one he's had multiple issues with over the past two years - apparently took a pounding on a few plays last Sunday at St. Louis, which led to some swelling and soreness that hasn't gone away.
He has not been available for comment the last two days.
"He got his treatment early in the week, and we're just trying to see if we can get it close to 100 percent right now," HC Sean Payton said. "So we'll see where he's at tomorrow. Hopefully we can practice him tomorrow. At the same time, I don't want to set it back." (New Orleans Times-Picayune)
FF Today's Take: Pierre Thomas would likely assume Bush's touches and make an even better play than he already was this week vs. the Bucs. Amazingly, Bush hasn't seen double-digit touches in any game since the Saints' Week 5 bye and doesn't appear able to handle much more than 6-8 touches/game at this point in his career.
