Kool-Aid McKinstry - Past hamstring injury McKinstry (hamstring) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday.

Impact McKinstry returned to practice Wednesday after missing the Saints' last two games due to a hamstring injury. He appears to be on track to play Sunday against the Browns, however, after he was able to practice Thursday without limitations. In the eight games prior to his injury, McKinstry logged 18 tackles (14 solo) and three pass defenses.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. - Stays limited Thursday Wilson (shoulder) was limited at practice Thursday.

Impact Wilson injured his shoulder Week 9 at Carolina and wasn't able to practice last week en route to inactive status this past Sunday against the Falcons. With back-to-back capped sessions to begin Week 11 prep,, he's put himself in a position to return to action Sunday versus the Browns, but Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not he takes a designation into the weekend.

Jamaal Williams - Sitting out another practice Williams (groin) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Impact Williams has sat out the Saints' last two games and has yet to take any practice reps this week, so he may be facing an uphill battle to gain clearance for Sunday's contest against the Browns. If Williams remains out for another game, the Saints could continue to lean on Taysom Hill and Jordan Mims to spell lead back Alvin Kamara.

Pete Werner - DNP on Wednesday Werner (hand) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact Werner played 49 defensive snaps and recorded five total tackles and one pass defended before exiting Sunday's win over the Falcons with a hand injury. Wednesday's DNP suggests that issue could be serious, and the Ohio State product will likely have to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up in Week 11, when the Saints host the Browns.

Kool-Aid McKinstry - Begins week with limited work McKinstry (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact McKinstry had logged five consecutive DNPs before Wednesday's limited session, which suggests he could be nearing a return to the field. The 2024 second-round pick's participation in practice both Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play in the Saints' Week 11 matchup against the Browns.

Jamaal Williams - DNP on Wednesday Williams (groin) didn't take part in practice Wednesday.

Impact Stretching back to last week, Williams has been listed as a non-participant on back-to-back injury reports due to a groin issue, missing the last two games a result. He was seen on an exercise bike in the open portion of Wednesday's practice, per Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football, so it's unclear where he stands in his recovery effort.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. - Limited Wednesday Wilson (shoulder) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wilson wasn't able to mix into any drills last week before he was ruled out for this past Sunday's contest versus the Falcons due to a shoulder injury, so his ability to handle some on-field work to kick off Week 11 prep generally is a positive sign. He'll have two more sessions this week to put himself on a path to returning to action Sunday against the Browns.

Payton Turner - Sacks Cousins in Week 10 Turner finished Sunday's 20-17 win over the Falcons with four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass defense and one forced fumble.

Impact Turner logged his second sack of the regular season Sunday when he got to Kirk Cousins late in the second quarter for a five-yard loss, stripping the ball in the process that was recovered by Drake London. Turner played a season-high 29 snaps on defense, but he's still firmly entrenched as the Saints' No. 4 defensive end behind Cameron Jordan, Carl Granderson and Chase Young. Through nine regular-season games, Turner has logged 13 tackles (eight solo), including 2.0 sacks, three pass defenses and two forced fumbles.

Alontae Taylor - Makes nine stops in Week 10 Taylor totaled nine tackles (seven solo) against Atlanta in Sunday's 20-17 victory.

Impact Taylor tied for second on the Saints in tackles behind Demario Davis, who made 10 stops. The nine tackles by Taylor tied the season-high mark he first established in Week 2 against Dallas. Taylor is having a strong season with 58 tackles (42 solo), including a career-high 4.0 sacks, 10 defensed passes and two forced fumbles through 10 games.

Demario Davis - Paces team with 10 stops Sunday Davis notched 10 tackles (two solo) and a defensed pass in Sunday's 20-17 victory over the Falcons in Week 10.

Impact Davis registered his second double-digit tackle total of the campaign to lead New Orleans in the win. The veteran linebacker continues to be an anchor of the Saints on defense, playing every one of the team's defensive snaps over five of the past six weeks. Davis appears to be on his way to an eighth straight 100-tackle campaign with 66 stops through nine contests this season.

Ugo Amadi - Capitalizes on opportunity Sunday Amadi logged nine tackles (all solo), including three for loss, in Sunday's 20-17 Week 10 win against Atlanta.

Impact With Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) traded to Washington last Tuesday, Amadi logged 100 percent of New Orleans' defensive snaps for the first time this season. He played well, finishing with a season-high nine stops, including three tackles for loss. Amadi also made a huge play on the final snap of the game, making a nice tackle of Ray-Ray McCloud to keep the wideout in bounds and force the clock to expire to ensure a narrow Saints victory.
