TAMPA, Fla. -- The New Orleans Saints have placed starting right tackle Ryan Ramczyk on injured reserve, the team announced Saturday.
The move is set to end the 29-year-old's season. Ramczyk and the Saints doctors are trying to find a solution to a recurring issue that has caused him pain in his knee for the past three seasons.
Saints coach Dennis Allen said Friday that there have been ongoing discussions between Ramczyk, the team and doctors regarding a cartilage defect in Ramczyk's knee. Ramczyk said earlier in the week that the wear and tear of the NFL had caused the cartilage in his knee to deteriorate.
