Saints Wide Receiver Joins Week 1 Injury List—Find Out Why

In this story:
The Saints are one day closer to taking on the Panthers, and the second injury report of Week 1 is out for them. One new face was added for New Orleans, as Thursday's list looks similar to Wednesday. Here's the rundown.
Week 1 Saints Injury Report - Thursday

DID NOT PRACTICE
- Khalen Saunders (calf)
- D'Marco Jackson (calf)
- Dallin Holker (ankle)
- Jaylan Ford (hamstring)
- A.T. Perry (hand)
LIMITED
- Willie Gay Jr. (back)
- Nick Saldiveri (calf)
FULL
- Pete Werner (shoulder)
- Marshon Lattimore (hip)
Perry, Saunders and Jackson were among those who were not spotted during the open portion of practice Thursday. Dallin Holker was once again an observer, which could signal that he won't be available for the season opener. Jaylan Ford was working off to the side again. We'll get one final injury report ahead of Sunday, but we don't anticipate much changing for players like Saunders, Jackson and Ford.

I officially started covering the New Orleans Saints & other NFL topics in 2011. My work has been featured on various outlets over the years. I worked closely with Skyhorse Publishing in Fall 2018 to update the book, Tales From the New Orleans Saints Sidelines, which filled in all Saints material from the 2013-2017 seasons. Prior to joining Saints News Network, I served as the Managing Editor of SB Nation's Canal Street Chronicles for 3.5 years, and before that with FanSided's Who Dat Dish as the Managing Editor for several years. I have also had experiences of being a freelance Saints reporter for The Sun Herald in Biloxi, MS and a contributing writer for WDSU, a local NBC TV station in New Orleans.
