If it's an MCL it usually takes 2-4 weeks depending upon position. A lineman that requires little lateral movement could be back toward the lower end, but a skill position player like a WR, RB, CB or safety would definitely require the upper end. The Saints' Mike Bell, Pierre Thomas and currently Tracey Porter all missed, or will miss, the full four weeks with that injury. Nose tackle Sedrick Ellis also missed four weeks, but could have came back as early as two weeks, but Payton held him out until the Patriots game to have him at his healthiest.
