There are few things worse for an athlete than going down with an injury in Week 1.
Dreams evaporate in an instant. All the plans for the season go on hold.
New Orleans Saints safety Rafael Bush might have found that one thing worse: a new injury right on the heels of an old one.
Bush broke his fibula in a freak accident in late November of last season, which immediately sent him to IR and started a long rehab process that was finally over by the summer. Last week, an optimistic Bush was expressing excitement about finally feeling 100 percent and getting back on the field.
