DT Young placed on injured reserve

 

The Saints placed defensive tackle Brian Young on injured reserve Tuesday, officially ending his 2007 season.

 

Young was hospitalized last week with a rare case of pneumonia, and he had fluid drained from between his chest cavity and his lungs. Saints Coach Sean Payton said Monday that doctors were able to diagnose the condition, and Young is getting better. But he said the illness would require some recovery time.

 

To replace Young on the roster, the Saints signed defensive tackle Orien Harris off the Buffalo Bills' practice squad. The 6-foot-3, 300-pounder was drafted in the fourth round in 2006 by the Pittsburgh Steelers. He has spent time with the Cleveland Browns, appearing in two games last season.
