No. 16 has been a dreadful number since Saints legend retired

The New Orleans Saints are 16 days away from their first game of the season against the Arizona Cardinals. We continue the countdown to kickoff with a look at the unfortunate history of the number 16 with the Saints. Lance Moore is the only player who fans have fond memories with in the jersey recently.

There are some players you could point to that had success before Moore. He’s been the best guy in at least recent memory, and certainly the last one to make substantial contributions.

Bub Means currently wears the jersey but he was placed on injured reserve after suffering an ankle injury against the Chargers in the preseason opener.
