"The Saints were missing a couple of players from Saturday's practice, for obvious reasons. Marshon Lattimore (hip flexor), Trajan Jeffcoat (elbow) and Justin Herron (knee) were not out there, as expected. Nouri Nouili and Bryan Bresee were new absences. Nouili was waived to make room for new offensive lineman Chandler Brewer, who was out there in No. 73. Bryan Bresee is dealing with afoot injury, according to Dennis Allen. The severity is unknown, but he was around practice and involved on Friday. Bresee had a calf injury in last year's camp, so we'll continue to monitor this one." - John Hendrix, SNN
