NEW ORLEANS, La. – The New Orleans Saints are on a path to getting healthier after a rash of injuries hit the team, costing some starters the chance to take the field in recent weeks. Some of those players have returned to the field ahead of their Week 15 matchup with the Carolina Panthers.
Here is the information from the Wednesday injury report:
New Orleans Saints
Did Not Participate
- S Justin Reid (knee)
- RB Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle)
- T Asim Richards (ankle)
Limited Participation
- RB Devin Neal (abdomen)
- DE Chris Rumph II (wrist)
- T Taliese Fuaga (ankle)
Fuaga and Reid were both back at practice Wednesday (though, Reid did not participate). Getting both back and present is promising progress for New Orleans as they look ahead to a winnable stretch of four games to close out the season.
Neal’s abdominal injury will be important to watch throughout the week with Kamara remaining out with his knee and ankle injuries. Neal was present at practice and participating.
Carolina Panthers
Limited Participation
- LB Claudin Cherelus (concussion)
- CB Jaycee Horn (concussion)
Full Participation
- C Cade Mays (ankle)
- S Lathan Ransom (thumb)
- LB Christian Rozeboom (hip/hamstring)
The biggest name to watch throughout the week for the Panthers will be their top cornerback Horn. He and wide receiver Chris Olave’s matchup will be one of the most important of the game.
