The New Orleans Saints have dealt with various injuries at the wide receiver position throughout the offseason, and the position was relatively unimpressive during their first preseason matchup aside from A.T. Perry and Samson Nacua.
However, they may be getting some players back sooner rather than later, as Rashid Shaheed, Bub Means, and Equanimeous St. Brown all returned to practice today. According to Locked On Network’s Ross Jackson, the three returned to practice today, however, they did not participate in team drills.
These three returning is an extremely good sign, as all three have missed practice for significant amounts of time, with their injuries occurring on:
- Equanimeous St. Brown: Jul. 30
- Bub Means: Jul. 31
- Rashid Shaheed: Aug. 3
Out of the 15 players who missed the preseason Week 1 game for the Saints, it is great to be getting many of them back before their next matchup to get them warmed up, or in the case of Means and St. Brown, see what they have. In addition to these three, Mason Tipton was also observed to be on the sideline as well, who would be nice to see in preseason after having a standout camp. We will see how they each progress through the week, but this is a great start overall.
