Means’ injury is not expected to sideline him for an extended period, and he is optimistic about making a swift return to the field. The news of Means’ injury coincides with the arrival of rookies at training camp on Tuesday.
The Saints are currently in possession of an extensive group of rookie wide receivers including Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, A.T. Perry, Cedrick Wilson Jr, Equanimeous St. Brown, Jermaine Jackson, Stanley Morgan Jr, Mason Tipton, and Bub Means. Despite the crowded receiver group, Means’ injury is unlikely to hinder his chances of securing a spot on the roster, as New Orleans is in need of impactful players like Means.
During the 2024 NFL Draft, the Saints utilized a fifth-round pick to acquire Means from the University of Pittsburgh. He has already garnered considerable recognition for his athleticism and adaptability from those within the organization.
