Unfortunately for Saints running back Edwin Baker, it’s probably “been there, done that,” time again.
Even after a day when he scored his team’s only touchdown.
In his brief NFL career, Baker has been cut for three straight years, the past two in the first round when rosters are trimmed from 90 to 75.
And Sunday, even after Baker had brought the somnambulant Mercedes-Benz Superdome crowd to life with his 45-yard touchdown run and acquitted himself well on special teams in the Saints’ 27-13 exhibition loss to Houston, Sean Payton was more anxious to talk about rookie Marcus Murphy’s day.
