New Orleans Saints cornerback Paulson Adebo went down with a leg injury in the second quarter of a Thursday Night Football game against the Denver Broncos on Oct. 17.
Abedo, 25, was on the ground for several minutes and the Saints’ medical staff placed a vacuum splint on his leg and then carted him off the field. He was taken to a local medical center after getting X-rays at the stadium.
After the game, a 33-10 Broncos win, Saints coach Dennis Allen announced that Abedo suffered a broken femur, which will end his season.
The cornerback underwent surgery early Friday morning, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Abedo’s recovery timeline is expected to be about 4-5 months. That would put him on track to be healthy in March when he’s set to become an unrestricted free agent.
A former third-round pick out of Stanford, Abedo has totaled 43 pass breakups and 10 interceptions in 52 games in the NFL.
