Now healthy, Jairus Byrd says he has felt same frustration as Saints fans

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. -- Jairus Byrd gets it.

The defensive back knows what was expected of him when he signed a six-year, $54 million contract with the New Orleans Saints in 2014. He is well aware he hasn’t met those expectations yet after two injury-riddled seasons.

And Byrd insists he is just as frustrated about that as any Saints fan.

“(I know) this game is 100 percent -- everyone’s gonna get injured.
