New Orleans veterans Todd Bouman and Jamie Martin have been in a spirited struggle in Saints camp to back up QB Drew Brees. Unlike Brees, who was acquired from San Diego in the offseason, both have thrown touchdown passes in the preseason. “There are some guys that have done some good things in this camp and we’ll have a chance to see them maybe more than just in the first quarter,” head coach Sean Payton said. Bouman and Martin are expected to see extended playing time.

Chris Brown headed to bench
According to a source close to the Titans, CBS SportsLine.com has learned that Travis Henry is expected to be the Tennessee’s starting running back when they play vs. the Jets in Week 1 of the regular season. “Chris Brown is listed as the No. 1 running back in name only,” the source said, citing Henry’s dedication to the offseason workouts and overall ability as the main reasons why he’ll start over Brown and rookie LenDale White.
