ST. LOUIS – New Orleans Saints cornerback Tracy Porter sustained an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday, according to a league source.
Porter suffered the injury on the first play from scrimmage in the third quarter of the Saints’ 28-23 victory against the St. Louis Rams on Sunday at the Edward Jones Dome. Once on the sideline, team doctors placed Porter’s injured knee in a brace.
Saints Coach Sean Payton declined to identify the extent of Porter’s injury after the game.
