Saints C Erik McCoy leaves with injury; Cesar Ruiz takes over

The Saints entered the game without any real injury concerns for their offensive line throughout camp, but that changed on the first drive.

After moving downfield into Packers territory, Saints center Erik McCoy was injured before hobbling off the field under his own power. He went into the injury tent.


Second-year guard Cesar Ruiz, who played center at Michigan, stepped in on the next snap and held up well in front of Jameis Winston. He stayed in for the second-drive with McCoy still sidelined. Calvin Throckmorton took over at guard on the next drive as the Saints again drove deep into Packers territory, eventually scoring on a short touchdown pass to Alvin Kamara to pin New Orleans to an early 10-0 lead.
