The New Orleans Saints continue on with practice as they inch closer to their first preseason game against the Ravens on Saturday. For Day 12, there were four takeaways that stood out. Let’s dive right in, shall we?

New Orleans Saints – Training Camp Takeaways

4. Ty Montgomery carted off

Why not kick the Saints while they’re down? After all of the crap that’s been thrown at the Saints over the past few weeks, it’s not shocking that they were hit hard again during Wednesday’s camp with Ty Montgomery being carted off.

On paper, this might not seem like a huge deal. Montgomery is, at most, a third-string running back but his versatility is what will be missed, as he also has experience as a wide receiver. The Saints might have planned to use Montgomery at wide receiver more due to their lack of true depth at the position, so his injury is bad news.

Any injury is bad news but losing a player at a position of need is rough for any team. The Saints can’t just seem to catch a break, can they?

Hopefully, Montgomery is okay and able to contribute to this offense.
