Rookie Bub Means activated from non-football injury list

That didn’t take long. Bub Means has already been removed from the NFI list, freeing up the rookie for a full workload at training camp:

Just two days ago the New Orleans Saints placed rookie fifth-round pick Bub Means on the non-football injury list.

As of Thursday, he is now off of that list. The Saints announced that Means had been activated off the NFI list along with several other roster moves that the team made. Just a couple days ago, Nick Underhill at NOF Network reported that Means’ injury “wasn’t serious” and that he would be “good to go quickly.” Here’s proof of it.

The former Pitt Panther will be in competition for a spot at the back end of the wide receivers depth chart. With Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed locking up the top two spots, Means will be competing for playing time with guys like Cedrick Wilson Jr. and A.T. Perry who have the head start on him for the moment.

With the start of training camp in about a week, Means will get his opportunity to showcase his abilities and make a name for himself.
