As if losing by 37 points to the New Orleans Saints wasn’t enough, the team may have also lost their best player for the rest of 2024—defensive tackle Derrick Brown. The Pro Bowler, per NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero, sustained a “potentially season-ending” knee injury during the defeat, a setback that will require surgery on the 26-year-old’s meniscus.
