Terron Armstead To Miss Several Weeks With Elbow Injury
3 years agoNew Orleans Saints offensive lineman Terron Armstead (elbow) will miss several weeks with an elbow injury, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It's undoubtedly another blow to a Saints offensive line already down Erik McCoy (calf)- though it's a relief to hear that Armstead, whose injury was feared to be season-ending, will be able to return this season. The Pro Bowl left tackle has routinely graded out as one of Pro Football Focus' best blindside protectors in each of the last three seasons. It doesn't change any of the Saints' major fantasy players too much, as New Orleans is laden with depth on the offensive line. In the worst-case scenario, Jameis Winston will be facing pressure a bit more, which could potentially result in more check-downs to halfback Alvin Kamara.
