METAIRIE, La. (AP) — Saints cornerback Mike McKenzie’s fractured right kneecap will keep him out for the rest of the season.
Saints head coach Sean Payton said Monday that McKenzie will have surgery this week and be placed on injured reserve, which means he can’t come back for the rest of the season.
McKenzie had come back this season from a torn ligament in his right knee and had regained his starting job when his latest injury occurred Sunday in a loss at Atlanta.
