Delvin Breaux has been on the Saints injured reserve (IR) list since Sept. 5. During the preseason he was lined up to be one of two starting cornerbacks along with rookie Marshon Lattimore.
In training camp and preseason Breaux was having trouble staying on the field due to an unspecified injury. Rumors swirled that he was about to be cut or traded. Then, afer several medical opinions, it was discovered he had a small break in his fibula. It had originally been undetected by team physicians who were subsequently fired.
After all of that drama played out Breaux was put on IR.
