The New Orleans Saints have had some bad luck all season long when it comes to season-ending injuries. From losing Nick Fairley before the season started to Delvin Breaux after being misdiagnosed, the injured reserve list is getting pretty large.
You can add Kenny Vaccaro to that list as the Saints placed him on the IR on Thursday afternoon due to a groin injury. The former Texas Longhorn is the 16th player to be placed on the injured reserve, with the most recent one being linebacker A.J. Klein.
The Saints will be looking towards Rafael Bush and Chris Banjo to pick up the slack on Sunday when the Saints take on the Falcons with kickoff set for noon.
