#Saints return LB Victor Butler to practice while hes still on PUP list. They have 21 days to decide if hes able to return to active roster.

This was the last day #Saints could bring Butler back to practice - so not necessarily a sign that hes close to returning. Still a long shot



Well the first one made my dick move. Then I got the second one and went soft again......

"Practice" means riding a stationary bike?

21 days from now would be 6 months post injury, right?

That's pretty quick for an ACL.

But it makes complete sense for them to use every single second of the time allowed by the league to see if he can come back.

If not, you IR him. No big deal.

was it a partial tear? ....something that could heal in 6 mo? i dont recall.

If not, i cant see 6 mo. 9 months is a stretch with that injury.

Saints OLB Victor Butler (knee, PUP) has resumed practicing.

The Saints now have a three-week window to activate Butler. He's just four months removed from tearing up his knee, and is not expected to contribute this season despite today's news. Butler is signed through 2014. Provided he's healthy, he should earn a roster spot next summer. Butler was viewed as an ascendant player before going down.



Don't look to promising.

So even come the Superbowl he'd be on an accelerated ACL rehab Adrian Peterson type timetable.

Hoping its is this savvy move by Saints.

If there were no chance at all for him to come back then why wouldn't they have already IR him?
