METAIRIE, La. – The New Orleans Saints' radio broadcast team has some exceptional running back depth.
The franchise’s all-time leading rusher, Deuce McAllister, will fill in as the color analyst for WWL Radio while another former Saints running back, Hokie Gajan, begins chemotherapy.
Gajan, 56, revealed last month that he is battling cancer.
“He's going to do a fantastic job. I couldn't think of a better person to fill in for me,” Gajan told WWL’s website. “Deuce knows so much about this Saints offense. He's going to provide insight that Jim [Henderson], Kristian [Garic] and I could only dream of because he knows the team so well.
