While it seemed original that New Orleans Saints running back C.J. Spiller would be out for only Week 1 of the 2015 NFL season, head coach Sean Payton now won't commit to that.

As Katherine Terrell of NOLA.com reported, Payton had positive things to say about Spiller, but stopped short of saying he'd be in action during Week 2.

While the Saints run game struggled in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals, having Spiller back would obviously nice. Even if the Saints utilized him more in the passing game, he could certainly make his presence felt in a big way.
