The injury comes at a tough time, but hopefully, it is not a major problem. Dennis Allen did not sound overly concerned about it, and Adebo went off the field early in practice with a trainer but came back out for some drills.
Accordingly, it may be a maneuverable issue for the defensive back who had a breakout season in 2023.
Adebo has a bit of pressure on him in 2024, as he looks for a new deal following the season. Many teams will have eyes on him, including the Saints for a potential extension or new deal elsewhere.
He played at a Pro Bowl level with Marshon Lattimore missing most of the season due to injuries.
With Lattimore back, there’s probably less pressure on him to perform now. That being said, the Saints top CB’s return will make teams want to target Adebo and the other parts of the field more often. He’s got to be up to the challenge in a contract year for New Orleans. — A to Z Sports
Keep an eye out for updates on the injury for Adebo. Marshon Lattimore is dealing with an injury of his own as well. Don’t be shocked to see New Orleans add a DB this week for some depth in practice if either have to miss more time.
