Reggie Bush: Which Team Will Win Sweepstakes for the New Orleans Saints RB?

A lot is being made of the Reggie Bush situation with the New Orleans Saints. In a normal offseason, this story would have been over weeks ago, but this year we have had a whole summer to speculate. Everyone loves to come out and say how Bush is a bust, but if you look at his college games and thought that he would just walk into the NFL and do the same thing, you were crazy.

Everyone is wondering where Bush will go, and it seems like every other day, there's a rumor that a new team is interested. Let me put a end to all of this.

Reggie Bush is a New Orleans Saint and will remain a New Orleans Saint for the foreseeable future.

After the 2010 season ended, Bush said he was ready and willing to restructure his deal. 

The fact that the Saints drafted Mark Ingram will have very little effect on the number of touches Bush will get in a game. Ingram's running style is more similar to Pierre Thomas than Reggie Bush. Ingram is a good receiver out of the backfield, but he's nowhere near as good at that as Bush is when he's healthy.

Bush is a gadget back and is part of the reason the Saints have been able to run so many different packages and screens. Even with the injury issues Bush has had, the Saints know how valuable he is when healthy.  

Simply put, Reggie Bush is the only player in the NFL who isn't considered elite and who hasn't made the Pro Bowl to get this much attention from the media. Everyone loves to hate Reggie Bush because he hasn’t exactly set the field on fire, but look at the field more closely and you will see he does a lot for the Saints offense even when he doesn’t touch the ball. He often commands the attention of opposing defenses, and other teams have to account for the threat he poses on the field.

A quick summary, just in case you missed it: Reggie Bush is a weapon in the Saints' arsenal and an asset to the offense. Bush will remain with the Black and Gold this season. Who Dat!
