Week 1: Saints–Lions Final Injury Report
Friday Practice report brought some clarity to who is in and who is out for Sundays Game. The Saints ruled out three guys that have been NP all week and the NT that was out for rest will play. The Lions are almost completely healthy, with only Izien Questionable.
Saints
Friday: The Saints ruled out the three guys that missed practice all week, although Cam Jordan did return in a limited fashion today. Alvin Kamar was listed as Questionable after going through a full practice, so the Saints ground game look like it may be close to full strength.
Thursday: No changes from the estimates for the four players that appears on Wednesday, but starting NT Davon Godcauz sat out practice today for Rest and was not injury related.
Wednesday: Saints had three players that did not practice, including starting Edge Cam Jordan. The ither three are depth players, but Alvin Kamara, the backup RB was limited. So overall the Saints are pretty healthy coming in as of now.
Lions
Friday: The Lions had an almost clean injury report, with only DB Christina Izien still Limited and Questionable to play on Sunday. All other players fully practiced including DL Mekhi Wingo and Edge Derrick Moore, who had been limited the last two days.
Thursday: Zero changes to the Lions estimated report from yesterday, with three limited guys and five that are nicked up but practiced in full. Izien and Moore are the two to keep an eye on as they are expected to contribute, and soft-tissue injuries can be fickle at times.
Wednesday: The Lions listed eight players on the injury report, and although none are starters, several are expected to have prominent depth roles (Rakestraw, Abney, Izien, Moore and Harper. The good thing is that no one missed practice, just three guys that were limited and the other five practiced in full (including Jimmy Rolder) and should be good to go.
