New Orleans Saints DE Marcus Davenport finger amputation

good Tuesday evening everyone. I'm W. D. S. U. Sports anchor fletcher medical here in memory at the Saints facility and we've got *** lot to talk about regarding the black and gold. We start with quarterback Jameis Winston all during off season training, Winston has had *** noticeable limp which is totally understandable given that he's recovering from offseason ***. C. L. Surgery. The big question now is will Jamie be 100% healthy when training camp starts and will he play in preseason games? That's hard to say. You know what I mean? I think he's gonna be I think he's gonna be able to function and do his role. Is he 100%. Is he 95 is he 92? I don't know what those percentages are but I feel like he's gonna be plenty healthy to do his job. I think that's gonna be up to to coach coach D. ***. I know I'm definitely ready when it when it comes to preseason but right now man I'm just focused on getting better every day. Going embracing my teammates uh and growing in this offensive system and get to know everybody again As for the New Orleans Saints offense as *** whole one of the big questions as we get ready for the 2022 season. Will it look the same now that Sean Payton is no longer here. Most of the veteran players say that it's been business as usual because longtime offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael is still here calling the plays I don't see any difference in him. I mean he's kind of always been in that role even over the years, sometimes he's called games, He's installed plays in front of the team. So I mean he's the same old Pete, you know, the mad scientist just drawing up plays, drawing up schemes so we can go out there and cause havoc. So I haven't noticed anything different. Everybody's just still cool. Still same bloodline, still the same culture. Um, everything's going smooth on paper. The saint seems set not just on offense and defense but also on special teams because pro bowl kicker will lutz is back, let's missed all of 2021 after suffering an abdominal injury. And he says it was very hard watching the Saints struggle on special teams realize that they used four different kickers while he was gone, man sought. Um, I want to be out there and you know, that's not to say anything bad about any other guys. It's everyone who was in here is very, very talented and it's *** lot of hard work to do what we do. And so, um, you know, I was pulling for every single one of those guys knowing that you know, if I'm not out there, I want everybody to make their kicks. So, um, but at the end of the day, I wanted to be there and that's what made it hard. The Saints have two more days of mandatory minicamp practices. Those workouts are Wednesday and thursday here in metarie so we'll talk much more about the black and gold. The rest of this week, we'll also talk about the new Orleans Pelicans. Later this week, I'll go one on one with Pelicans. Rookie star Trey Murphy. What is he expecting? Year two in the N. B. ***. For now, That's *** look at sports reporting in metairie on fletcher, Mackel WDS You News.
