Andrus Peat: It’s time for the Saints to give the rookie a shot at right tackle

It’s getting old fast. Watching Drew Brees take hit after hit and hurry after hurry that is. The New Orleans Saints worked at improving their offensive line this offseason, by trading for center Max Unger and drafting Andrus Peat, but this “revamped” unit may be worse than it was a year ago.

Through four games, Brees has been sacked seven times and hurried a staggering 29 times. Four of those seven sacks came from right tackle Zach Strief, who looks flat out old and sluggish in 2015.
