McKenzie's ACL to keep him sidelined: Saints CB Mike McKenzie totaled 52 tackles (45 solo) with three interceptions -- two returned for touchdowns -- and 17 passes defensed. It was enough to make him a top-50 Fantasy DB in 2007. However, McKenzie tore his ACL in Week 16 and will spend the offseason rehabbing his knee, a process that will cut his offseason camp schedule and likely keep him out of the opening of training camp (ACL rehab usually takes nine months). (Updated 01/30/2008).
Injury Report
Knee - Doubtful for the start of 2008 training camp (Updated - 1/30/08)
Fantasy Analysis
McKenzie is the one quality cornerback that the Saints have, so chances are they'll hang on to him even though he's hurt and his salary cap number escalates over the next two seasons. Because of the knee injury, McKenzie is not worth drafting outside of a late-round flier in the deepest of IDP leagues this summer. (Updated 01/30/2008).
CB Mike McKenzie was placed on the Active/physically unable to perform list as he continues to rehab from offseason knee surgery. Coach Sean Payton has said he doesn't know whether or not McKenzie will be ready for the start of the season. 07/24/2008

Sedrick Ellis and Tracy Porter, the New Orleans Saints' top two draft picks, remained unsigned and absent while the rest of the team reported to training camp Wednesday.
For the Buccaneers and Panthers, all focus is on their running back battles come camp time. Tampa Bay has a trio to choose from while Carolina hopes rookie Jonathan Stewart can be another weapon in the backfield, Clark Judge says.
