Saints may have offered us two pieces of good news in one personnel move today, activating Ted Ginn, Jr and clearing a spot on the 53-man roster for him by waiving o-lineman Cornelius Lucas. May or may not mean that Ginn will be active tomorrow, but the fact that they waived a lineman knowing Bushrod is out is a possible indicator that Armstead is ready.

ProFootballTalk says Armstead and Ginn are active today.

Payton in one of his presser's this week called for the league to expand the active and game day rosters. Under the current active roster rules, who takes a break next week if we clinch today? Other than Brees, I mean? You just aren't allowed enough players on the roster to permit many players to take a weekend off.

Armstead starting.
