>>49ers TE Kittle Out For Multiple Weeks With Hamstring Injury
(Santa Clara, CA) — The 49ers will be without their star tight end for the foreseeable future.

(Metairie, LA) — The Saints are likely to be without a member of their secondary for the rest of the season.

Blackmon signed with New Orleans during training camp and played every defensive snap in the team’s Week One loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The injury was not discovered until a few hours after the game when Blackmon got home. The 27-year-old had seven total tackles in the season opener.
