METAIRIE, La. – Jameis Winston’s torn ACL in his left knee will sideline him the remainder of the season. It's bad news for a quarterback, who was working to revive his career, and the New Orleans Saints.
Winston earned the QB1 job this summer because he gave the Saints the best chance to win. And their passing game was already a big concern because of their lack of proven depth at wide receiver and tight end.
However, the Saints (5-2) aren’t sunk -- as they showed in their improbable 36-27 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.
