Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Won't play vs. Tennessee

Ruiz (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Ruiz will end up missing a second straight game due to an ankle injury, so William Sherman will likely start at right guard against Tennessee. With the Saints eliminated from playoff contention, Ruiz's last opportunity to suit up this season is Week 18 against the Falcons.
