New Orleans Saints tight end Adam Trautman (ankle/foot) was carted to the locker room during Monday night's preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
While the severity of the injury is still unknown, this is a devastating blow the Saints, who will already spend much of the 2021 season without their top wideout. Hopefully the second-year tight avoids significant damage and can make a full and speedy recovery.
Trautman was a popular breakout tight end selection in fantasy football circles this offseason, but this injury could throw a wrench in his development. Already down Michael Thomas, the Saints may need to rely on offseason standout Marquez Callaway in the passing game this season.
