Saints RB Bush missed another practice with knee injury

The New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush may need more than expected time to take care of his injured left knee. Missing the second straight practice on Thursday, Bush remains an uncertain part of the team that will play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday.

Bush gained 98 yards and scored two touchdowns on six rushes and a pair of receptions while playing against the St. Louis Rams last Sunday, making it one of his best games of the season. But the knee he had surgery on last December to repair cartilage seemed in need of more care, and he began to have some swelling in the knee after last Sunday’s game.

According to Saints Coach Sean Payton, Bush is getting some rest for the knee and team will be cautious to avoid doing anything that may worsen the injury, although they all hope that Bush could wear back his Saints jersey and return to practice Friday.
