Saints Thursday Injury Report

  • DID NOT PRACTICE: Ryan Ramczyk (rest), Jimmy Graham (rest)
  • LIMITED: Kendre Miller (hamstring), J.T. Gray (shoulder), Juwan Johnson (calf)

Jimmy Graham was the only player not spotted at practice on Thursday, and I saw Ryan Ramczyk briefly before stretch. J.T. Gray was wearing a red non-contact jersey during the open portion made available to the media. The Saints had all of their new additions in attendance from the practice squad transactions made on Monday.

Here are the new player's jersey numbers:

  • No. 30 - Faion Hicks, DB
  • No. 42 - Ty Summers, LB
  • No. 47 - Terrell Lewis, LB/DE
  • No. 86 - Michael Jacobson, TE

Carolina Panthers Thursday Injury Report

The Panthers injury report included CB Jaycee Horn (hamstring-DNP) with WR DJ Chark (hamstring) and RT Taylor Moton (biceps) in limited duty. Starting LG Brady Christensen was placed on injured reserve earlier this week, while Horn is expected to miss several weeks. 

We'll get two more looks at both teams this week, but again, this is an encouraging sign for the Saints to start off Week 2.
