Bush gained 98 yards and scored two touchdowns on six rushes and a pair of receptions while playing against the St. Louis Rams last Sunday, making it one of his best games of the season. But the knee he had surgery on last December to repair cartilage seemed in need of more care, and he began to have some swelling in the knee after last Sunday’s game.
According to Saints Coach Sean Payton, Bush is getting some rest for the knee and team will be cautious to avoid doing anything that may worsen the injury, although they all hope that Bush could wear back his Saints jersey and return to practice Friday.
