Saints' Brandin Cooks: Won't play Saturday
Cooks won't take the field for Saturday's preseason game at Houston, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.
Analysis:
Joining Cooks on the sideline is Willie Snead, which indicates that head coach Sean Payton wants quarterback Drew Brees to work with some of the less experienced hands in the receiving corps. As a result, expect Brandon Coleman and Michael Thomas to serve as the starting WR tandem Saturday.
