NFL Week 10: First Saints Injury Report Has 13 Players Listed On It

In this story:
The Saints made several changes when they got back into the building on Wednesday. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi elaborated on several of them during his presser, with one of them hopefully helping to cut down on injuries. New Orleans introduced what Rizzi called an 'activation' period, or a fancy word for warming up where the players get a little sweat in before they go to work. Here's a look at their first injury report for Week 10.

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.
