Ryan Ramczyk has been a cornerstone for the New Orleans Saints for over half of a decade. He's been an All-Pro level offensive tackle most of his career, but there were some concerns following the 2023 season. Ramczyk is dealing with a knee injury that won't go anywhere. 

Accordingly, Ramczyk underwent a minor knee procedure recently, according to Nick Underhill. It was not a major surgery - more of a clean-up for the veteran OT.

The Saints are seemingly confident in the offensive tackle's future. His knee issues are noteworthy, but the organization is hopeful about his outlook.

If Ramczyk can give the Saints 2-3 more solid seasons at tackle, that may be the best case scenario for the organization and the player. Only time will tell, but this procedure was a minor one to help his outlook for the future.
