The New Orleans Saints placed cornerback Delvin Breaux on injured reserve and brought back offensive tackle Bryce Harris, according to Monday's NFL Transactions report.
Breaux continues to rehabilitate from a mid-August surgery to repair a fractured fibula and is expected to be out four to six weeks.
He must spend at least six weeks on injured reserve, and then put in two weeks of practice before the Saints can activate him to the 53-man roster.
Given the timeline, the Saints could have Breaux by Week 9 barring a setback.
