NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Saints NT Brodrick Bunkley (calf) will be out "several weeks." Bunkley injured his calf in the opener versus Atlanta and was spotted in a walking boot and on crutches following the win. Third-round rookie John Jenkins will slide into the starting lineup at the nose. The Saints just keep taking hits on defense. OLBs Will Smith and Victor Butler and LE Kenyon Coleman have already been lost for the season. ILB Jonathan Vilma is on short-term injured reserve.
