What Happened to Paulson Adebo? Saints CB Ruled Out With Knee Injury
Paulson Adebo seems to be done for the day. With 9:52 left in the second quarter, Adebo collided with a defensive pile and immediately clutched his right leg in pain and signaled for assistance.
The Cornerback was carted off the field with a vacuum splint on his right leg to the X-ray room. According to reports coming from the camp, Adebo suffered a knee injury and has been ruled out from the game. From the looks of it, the CB like suffered a femur fracture or an ACL tear.
The injury came as he was rushing to assist his teammate Jordan Ho Jordan Howden in tackling Javonte Williams after a 9-yard completion from Bo Nix.
He seems to have stepped awkwardly even before colliding with the pile. He was replaced by rookie Kool-Aid McKinstry.
Adebo’s injury is bad news for the already injury-riddled Saints team that is 2-4 in the season. The Broncos have a 13-point lead against the Saints at halftime.
