The Facts: Coleman missed all spring practices open to the media with an undisclosed injury, and now it seems he likely won't be available when training camp begins Thursday (July 26). The Saints plan to place Coleman on the physically unable to perform list before camp starts, according to a league source.

Diehards Line: The team can activate him from the active/PUP list whenever he's healthy, but the transaction gives the Saints the opportunity to place him on the reserve/PUP list to start the regular season in the event the injury lingers. Coleman has played a key role for the Saints the past three season and established himself as the team's best run-blocking receiver. He re-signed with the Saints on a one-year deal in April after the team declined the chance to tender him as a restricted free agent.
