Buy Saints Tickets

That isn’t what you want to see. The New Orleans Saints downgraded star running back Alvin Kamara (ribs) on Thursday’s Week 2 injury report, making him and Paulson Adebo (ankle) their only two non-participants at Thursday’s practice session. Safety Marcus Maye (ankle) and guard Calvin Throckmorton (illness) were upgraded to full participation, while everyone else saw their statuses remain the same.

On the other side: Tampa Bay Buccaneers leading wide receiver Mike Evans (calf) was also sidelined after practicing on a limited basis earlier in the week, though quarterback Tom Brady (rest) returned to a full day’s work. Wide receiver Russell Gage (hamstring) was limited as was cornerback Zyon McCollum (hamstring).
