Drew Brees listed on Saints-Colts injury report, Jared Cook upgraded to full practice

The New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts updated their injury report, with Drew Brees and Jared Cook in on full practice participation.

The New Orleans Saints have had a rash of injuries recently, as evidenced by Thursday’s injury report. Ahead of their Week 15 clash with the Indianapolis Colts on “Monday Night Football,” the Saints had one of their longest injury reports of the season.

All eyes will be on the defense, with players such as defensive end Cameron Jordan (limited), safety Vonn Bell (did not participate), and linebacker A.J. Klein (limited) each managing injuries. The health of the offensive line is also a concern; left tackle Terron Armstead and backup guard Will clapp were limited, while left guard Andrus Peat is not practicing yet. Quarterback Drew Brees also appeared on the injury report after taking a hit in the final drive of the Week 14 game against the San Francisco 49ers. However, he was a full participant. Tight end Jared Cook was also upgraded to full practice participation while returning from last week’s concussion.

Indianapolis is not without their own injury woes. Star wideout T.Y. Hilton has dealt with a calf issue that has seen him miss time since Week 8 of the season. However, he could potentially return to the field against New Orleans in Week 15.

Here’s what we learned on Thursday’s injury report. Because the Saints are playing on Monday instead of the usual Sunday, this week’s injury reports will be issued on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday — so check back often for updates. Changes to each subsequent injury report will be denoted with bold text.
