Jammal Brown was carted off the field at Millsaps College Tuesday after suffering a knee injury during drills.
Eyewitness Sports’ Jim Henderson said the injury happened during running drills where Brown was blocking.
Head coach Sean Payton said he didn't want to speculate on the severity of Brown's injury until it has been examined. Payton said the trainer initially looked at the knee and said it appeared 'stable' which he said was better than it appearing to be loose.
Brown was the 13th selection overall in the 2005 NFL Draft. He played right tackle his rookie year before moving to left tackle to protect Drew Brees' blind side in 2006. He was named All-Pro by the Associated Press and was a first team Pro Bowl selection.
