 Bush Sits Friday, Questionable -- Fri Nov 20 9:00 pm --
Saints RB Not Ruled Out Yet | New Orleans Saints tailback Reggie Bush was held out of practice again Friday with a bruised left knee. But Coach Sean Payton didn't rule him out of Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, officially listing him as questionable. "It's a knee bruise. With that, there's swelling, " said Payton, who considers Bush's injury more of a temporary issue than a long-term concern despite Bush's history of more significant left knee injuries. "It's just a matter of trying to keep it immobilized, ice, treatment, seeing where it's at tomorrow."
Payton said Bush knows the Saints' offense well enough that he would be able to play Sunday even without practicing all week. But at the same time, he doesn't want to risk any setbacks if he's not close to 100 percent.
Bush declined to speak to reporters Friday. (Times-Picayune)
FF Today's Take: Bush's history with knee injuries has made him a part time and inconsistent player in the Saints offense. At the very least, expect him to be limited this week if not Inactive. Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell should see more work as result.
