BREES IS BACK! The Saints quarterback was at practice Thursday, but did not take part in any work with the team. The 41-year-old did stretching off to the side as he works his way back from multiple rib injuries combined with a collapsed lung. Expect Taysom Hill to remain the starter in Philadelphia Sunday, but seeing Brees being active is a positive sign he could be ready for week 15.
Running back Latavius Murray was a new addition to the injury report and is listed with a knee issue.
Also LIMITED:
DT Malcom Brown (shoulder)
DT Shy Tuttle (wrist)
WR Deonte Harris (neck)
T Ryan Ramczyk (elbow)
CB Janoris Jenkins (knee)
WR Michael Thomas (ankle)
Meanwhile, corner Patrick Robinson did not practice for a 2nd straight day due to a hamstring injury, while defensive tackle David Onyemata missed today’s session due to an illness. If it was coronavirus related he would be listed on the NFL’s reserve/COVID list.
