METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints lost core special teams player and backup linebacker Nathan Stupar to a torn ACL, a source confirmed.
As first reported by NOLA.com, Stupar was injured during punt coverage in the Saints' 52-38 victory over the Miami Dolphins -- a disappointing development for a New Orleans team that has won three straight games to reach 3-2 and climb over .500 for the first time since 2013.
