Disaster struck the New Orleans Saints in their preseason finale against the Los Angeles Chargers when rookie left tackle Trevor Penning left the game on a medical trainer's cart. The situation was already dicey with James Hurst, the projected starter at the position, sidelined with his own injury. But Saints head coach Dennis Allen addressed both situations after the game. 'I feel like James Hurst is going to be back sooner than later,' Allen told reporters Friday evening, adding that Penning has been diagnosed with a toe injury but will undergo further evaluations.
