Saints Place Pierre Thomas on IR

 

Our worst fears have been confirmed: Pierre Thomas is done for the season. This is something we became suspicious of when he was held out from the Tampa Bay home game this past weekend with a "setback" and it became alarming when news broke that running back Joique Bell had been signed today. The news is a huge blow to the Saints considering the fact that Chris Ivory was shelved for the year only 24 hours prior. The Saints will now head into Seattle Saturday with backfield depth consisting of: Reggie Bush, Julius Jones, DeShawn Wynn and Joique Bell.

Did this news catch you by surprise? Is it safe to say our running game is officially in shambles now?
