""That's what adrenaline does to you," Moore said. "I mean sometimes those things happen for these guys. There's a lot of juice and energy and games and you make big time plays and everyone's sore after a football game. ... Sometimes it takes a little bit of time to realize what's soreness and what's an injury and unfortunately this the way it went down for Julian.""
"Moore said that Blackmon's injury "will be a long one, potentially for the full season.""
""Bummer for him just because done such an amazing job of coming in here and put himself in an awesome position to have a great season and played great on Sunday as well," Moore said."
Julian Blackmon suffered a shoulder injury that is likely season-ending. The injury was not identified until hours after the game when symptoms appeared at home. Blackmon signed with New Orleans during training camp after Tyrann Mathieu retired and played every snap in the Saints' loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Adrenaline and game exertion masked the injury during play, delaying recognition between routine soreness and a true injury. The prognosis has been described as potentially lasting the full season. The Saints must shift depth to Jordan Howden, who was inactive with an oblique issue, or rookie Jonas Sanker.
