NEW ORLEANS -- New Orleans Saints cornerback Paulson Adebo was ruled out of Thursday night's game against the Denver Broncos because of a right knee injury.
Adebo, who has started every game this season, was carted off after he was fitted with a vacuum splint on his right leg. Adebo was injured after he attempted to help tackle Broncos running back Javonte Williams near the Saints sideline.
Adebo hit the turf and immediately grabbed his right knee. Saints' medical staff examined Adebo's leg as he was on the turf and quickly motioned for a cart to come onto the field.
Adebo gave the thumbs-up to the crowd after he was placed on the cart and driven off in the second quarter. He was replaced by rookie second-round pick Kool-Aid McKinstry.
Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) and Nick Saldiveri (shoulder) were also ruled out.
