Since rebuilding their entire training staff, the New Orleans Saints have seen a positive impact on their team. Even though there were some major injuries throughout last season- that's always going to happen in football- the pesky soft tissue issues that plagued the team in the past have not been as prevalent.
This season, the hope was that their injury luck would continue, and although things could be worse, after Week 1, there have already been some issues that affect the roster. So, let's look this week's injury update for the Saints.
By now everybody knows about this one, but it's important to still talk about. Bryan Bresee was set to be a major piece on the defensive line, and for his future career, it needed to be a big year from him. Instead, after suffering a knee injury, Bresee will be out for the entire season.
For the Saints' defensive line, it's going to be harder for the Saints to deal with this loss, and for Bresee, this puts extreme pressure on him next season. It's going to be a contract year, and if Bresee can't bounce back and show improvement, the Saints may not bring him back.
Before training camp, DT Christen Miller was dealing with some injury issues, but has been healthy since. He is an extremely important piece of the defensive line, just like Bresee was, but Miller's main spot will be at nose tackle. Miller should be the heir apparent to Davon Godchaux, and staying on the field could accelerate that.
