Saints running back Mark Ingram and linebacker Will Herring have been placed on season-ending injured reserve, Jeff Duncan of The Times-Picayune reports. The Saints traded back into the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft to select the former Heisman Trophy winner from the University of Alabama. Ingram's rookie season will end after rushing for 474 yards and five touchdowns on 122 carries. Herring sustained a sprained MCL during the regular season finale. A free agent addition after the lockout, the former Seattle Seahawks linebacker had nine tackles, four on special teams, and an interception in his first season with the Saints.
