Here we go: the first New Orleans Saints injury report of 2022 is here, but it’s got a mixed bag of news ahead of Week 1’s kickoff with the Atlanta Falcons. Wednesday’s initial injury report lists wide receiver Michael Thomas (hamstring) and linebacker Pete Werner (groin) as limited participants, with center Erik McCoy (calf) and safety J.T. Gray (hamstring) also limited. They’ll all have two more days of practice to improve before traveling to Atlanta this weekend.
Here’s the full (and first!) Saints injury report:
