Bryan Bresee was added to the New Orleans Saints injury report on Thursday due to a back injury. The third-year defensive lineman, who has never missed a game in his career, participated in practice on a limited basis. It is unclear if the injury occurred during the session.
Bresee has started all nine games this season, playing a career-high 71% of defensive snaps. He has recorded 1.5 sacks and 2 tackles for loss so far.
The Panthers upgraded running back Rico Dowdle (quadricep) on Thursday’s injury report. Dowdle was limited in practice after missing Wednesday’s session.
"Bresee, who has never missed a game in his career, was a limited participant in the practice session."
Summary: Despite Bryan Bresee’s back injury causing limited practice participation, the Saints maintain key starters with a few players expected to miss upcoming games.
