will have a new starting right tackle when the team returns from the bye week.
The Saints on Tuesday placed Zach Strief on injured reserve, according to a source familiar with the situation. The move was later confirmed on Tuesday's NFL Transactions report.
Strief suffered a knee injury in Week Four against the Miami Dolphins after a Dolpins defensive lineman appeared to roll up on the veteran offensive lineman's right leg early in the fourth quarter.
Strief appeared to writhe in pain before making his way with trainers to the sideline, where he was taken to the locker room on a cart.
