Saints receiver Cameron Meredith 'way ahead of schedule' in return from knee injury

And back to Saints info/news/etc - Link with raw OTA video
Meredith has me excited.
"New Orleans Saints receiver Cameron Meredith is ahead of schedule in his return from a knee injury that kept him off the field for the entire 2017 season, coach Sean Payton said Thursday (May 24).
The 6-foot-3, 207-pound receiver who the Saints signed as a free agent this offseason did not participate in team drills during Thursday's OTA practice but Payton said his participation was encouraging.
"I made a comment to (Saints' director of sports medicine) Beau (Lowery) two days ago during the walk through," Payton said. "Just watching him move around and, you guys saw him, he's way ahead of schedule. And certainly where our doctor our doctors had hoped and even better.
"So, he's going to factor in this year. He's a player that we've got a real clear vision for."
The Saints landed the 25-year-old receiver as a restricted free agent after the Chicago Bears declined to match New Orleans' offer. He sustained a knee injury in the 2017 preseason but was coming off of a 2016 campaign that saw him catch 66 passes for 888 yards and four touchdowns.
Meredith said soon after the Saints acquired him he expected to be ready for the start of the season."

Everyone thought this guy was gonna limp out on the field. Bears may regret this.

Well that can't be true. All those Bears fans said they didn't re-sign him because he may never walk again.

I feel like every athlete is always “way ahead of schedule” according to their coaches regardless of their situation.

The Bears still may be proven correct so I would pump the brakes a tad

Not a Pels fan I see.

Did you watch the video? He was making some nice cuts. Looks to be close to me.

That’s great, but Cameron needs to remember that it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. I was recently reading an essay on knee injuries and the writer said that you should really give a knee injury two years before you can return to usual form.

For some reason, at first I read this as "Cameron Meredith cway BEHIND of schedule' in return from knee injury"
What a relief.
What a relief.

Glad no one told AP that otherwise he never would have had one of the best seasons for a RB in NFL history

Saints stocked up on recievers this year,
Signing Merdith, Drafting Smith and the other guy.
Someone is coming in to make a impact.

Except in sports medicine.

That may be the best part of this situation. He has yet to reach his prime.

Glad to see the gamble may pay off
