#Saints Victor Butler said he hasn't given up on playing this season. With PUP rules he can wait until Week 15, hopes it wont take that long
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) October 25, 2013
That's not an indication he'll play this season, obviously, but he's saying he's rehabbing and preparing with the thought in mind.
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) October 25, 2013
Butler also said there wasn't any specific rehab timetable given to him when he tore his ACL b/c every player is so different.
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) October 25, 2013
Butler was realistic about the situation though. It's a longshot for him to play this season. Still wants/hopes to be out there.
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) October 25, 2013
#Saints Butler said he's been running, cutting and getting back in shape for a few weeks now. Knows he might not return in '13 but will try.

RB Mark Ingram was in a good mood this afternoon in the locker room. Said he has felt good with what he has been able to do.
— WWL-TV Sports (@wwltvsports) October 25, 2013
Ingram said that he wouldn't wish a toe injury on his worst enemy after dealing w/ a toe issue 2 times in the past 3 years.
— WWL-TV Sports (@wwltvsports) October 25, 2013
When asked who his worst enemy would be, he laughed and said probably someone from Auburn. I assume not Ben Grubbs, however. Teammates.

#Saints Ingram said he used to think toe injuries no big deal. But after 2 unrelated toe injuries in 3 years 'wouldn't wish on worst enemy'

#Saints RB Mark Ingram said he felt good about work he was able to do on practice field today. Just being smart with toe ...

Rob Ryan on Malcolm Jenkins "we never want to take him out. He's played about every position on defense but nose tackle" #Saints

All Sean Payton said is the #Saints will keep evaluating Jimmy Graham in reference to today being an important day for Graham.

Payton says Ingram has turned the corner. Been upbeat this week.
