The New Orleans Saints dominated the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night football, but they did suffer two significant losses heading into next week’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.

Rookie strong safety Kenny Vaccaro posted on Instagram on Moday that he will miss the team’s Week 11 date with the 49ers after suffering a concussion against Dallas. The fact that he knew that quickly he’ going to miss this week’s game is concerning to say the least. Vaccaro has started all nine games for the Saints as a rookie after he was selected in the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He has managed one sack and one interception for the team, while racking up 45 tackles and five passes defended.
