FWIW -- and this flew under the radar, it seems -- Sean Payton, during Sunday's post-game press conference, basically declared Bush good to go for Thursday. Will look for a link ... I heard the press conference live.
Podcast, after a full practice Monday, it's no surprise that Bush's work is being limited. Payton is super-cautious about re-injury, and has no problem letting his vets off with light practice weeks.

Man, I hope not. Moore is fine in the PR role, IMHO.

It's a risk to play Bush this week so I think I'm holding off, being a Thurs game.
I may regret it, but I feel Blount is a safer play even against BAL so I'm pluggin him in at flex.
But dangit I'm ready to get Bush in there... he's money in ppr, just need to see how he does first.

Not so fast
After practicing in full on Monday, Saints RB Reggie Bush was limited in Tuesday's session as New Orleans continued preparations for its Week 12 game at Dallas on Thursday.
Analysis: Here we go again. Just when Bush's owners thought they could safely insert him into their lineup for Week 12 after last week's debacle, coach Sean Payton pulls this. Considering Payton's secrecy over the Pierre Thomas situation, owners who have Bush better have another RB option ready to go in case he's inactive again. And who knows how much work he'll get on Thursday considering he wasn't able to play just a couple of days ago.

I think Travis Henry did back in his Bills days. I don't have much more info off the top of my head, but the one thing to note is that the fibula, which Bush broke, is the non weight-bearing bone in the leg. That's not to say that a broken fibula isn't serious, but it's not as serious as a broken tibia since that is the weight-bearing bone.

I'm getting sick of this BS. I held on to Bush and ended up dropping Hillis. If he doesn't play soon, I might break his other leg...

Jesus man.......it is just a game.
a few years ago ben wallace (nba center) returned after 6 weeks (iirc, mebbe 8) from a broken fibula.

Is it just me, or has Bush been really inconsistent and unreliable as a fantasy back for the last few years? I've never owned him and don't know much about the Saints ground situation, but looking back at some fantasy stats over a few years, I wouldn't have much faith in him long term. Unless I'm missing something, it seems like a lot of people are sucked in just because he's a "big name". Unless it's a PPR, which I could understand him having more value since he plays a role in the passing game.

I'm going with Bush today over Blount. Maybe I just want a played going today and if thats why its not smart by me but true.

Saints running back Reggie Bush worked on a limited basis in Tuesday's practice even though coach Sean Payton said Sunday that he had a "great chance" of playing against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday.
Payton, however, said after practice that Bush was listed as limited only because of the number of repetitions they gave him in team drills as they continued preparing for Thursday's game.
"He's doing well, he's handling it," Payton said of Bush, who's missed the last eight games with a fractured right fibula. "It's just a matter of the team reps."
When asked about Bush's chances for playing Thursday, Payton said, "Pretty good. He's moving around and he continues to get better."
