Bush Out for Monday Night’s Showdown in Atlanta

Posted by Matt Loede on December 8th, 2007 filed in News

The Saints have lost their biggest big-play threat for Monday night in Atlanta as running back Reggie Bush will miss the game with a knee injury.  Bush was listed as questionable after he had an MRI earlier in the week that showed he had a partially torn left knee ligament.  As far as the rest of the season goes, the team will not comment, but there are already rumors that Bush will be shutting it down and missing the rest of the year.  Jamaal Branch, Aaron Stecker and rookie Pierre Thomas will be the running back. Thomas returned to practice Friday following a kidney bruise.
