The New Orleans Saints need to stay healthy on the offensive line. That can be said about any team, but they already sustained a fairly serious injury to rookie OT Trevor Penning. Today, they received good news regarding OT James Hurst.

Hurst will be one of their starting offensive tackles to begin the season. His health being at 100% is very important. He played pretty well in fill-in action last year. The Saints hope that the veteran will take another step forward.

The offensive line projects to be a strength once again for the Saints, and the steadiness of Hurst will play a big role in that. There's plenty of talent across the entire unit.
