New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton said Friday that cornerback , who has been out all season after having surgery to repair a fractured fibula, is on schedule in his recovery.
The original prognosis was for Breaux to miss six to eight weeks after surgery; he has been on the reserve/injured list all season and is eligible to return after Week 8. Breaux was at practice Friday during the portion of the workout that was open to media, and had a helmet in his hand. He later tweeted that it was good to be back on the field with his teammates.
