METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints promoted running back Jonathan Williams to their active roster and released veteran offensive lineman Jermon Bushrod on Saturday as they continued a weeklong roster shuffle at both positions.
It's unclear if there is any chance that Bushrod could come back at some point. He was jockeying for a roster position in an offensive line group that got even more crowded earlier this week when the Saints re-signed veterans Josh LeRibeus and Michael Ola.
Bushrod then missed practice both Thursday and Friday for an unspecified non-injury reason.
