Saints’ Marcus Davenport Had Part of Finger Amputated This Offseason

Saints defensive end Marcus Davenport revealed that he had to have part of his left pinky finger amputated based on an injury he suffered back in college, via The Athletic.

While playing at the University of Texas San Antonio, Davenport injured his left pinky. He didn’t get a plate inserted until last year, though. However, the plate later broke, causing an infection that prompted the amputation this offseason.

His pinky injury alone caused the former first round pick to undergo multiple surgeries. On top of that, he underwent a right shoulder surgery this offseason.
