INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Before the New Orleans Saints made it to halftime of their preseason opener against the Los Angeles Chargers, two offensive linemen had to return to the locker room because of apparent injuries.
Trevor Penning, who is in the midst of a transition to guard , went to the locker room during the second quarter. A report from the WWL-AM sideline reporter indicated Penning appeared to be walking normally, but he had his shoes off as he made his way back to the locker room.
