12 Nov
Summary
- Travis Etienne Jr. returned to limited practice for the Saints in Week 10.
- The running back has been sidelined since Week 3 with a hamstring injury.
- Several other Saints players are dealing with injuries impacting the backfield.
New Orleans Saints running back Travis Etienne Jr. participated in limited practice on Wednesday, marking a potential return for the Week 10 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. He has been on injured reserve since suffering a hamstring injury during the Week 3 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.

Compounding these changes, other key players like Alvin Kamara and CJ Donaldson have also faced injury concerns, affecting their availability.
Beyond Etienne, the Saints' injury report for Week 10 includes several other limited participants. These are Kevin Banks Jr. (ankle), David Edwards (undisclosed), Martin Emerson Jr. (shin), Noah Fant (back), and Christen Miller (knee). Asim Richards (thumb) fully practiced. Notably, Kamara had a rest day, while Donaldson and Erik McCoy (biceps) did not practice, with McCoy expected to miss time.
