Thursday’s Saints vs. Bears Injury Report

The New Orleans Saints continue to deal with a lingering illness that we've seen keep players out of practice for the second consecutive week. On Thursday, defensive tackle Malcolm Roach was absent with said illness. Wide receiver Michael Thomas was a full participant during Thursday’s practice after being limited during Wednesday’s practice recovering from illness. Guard/Tackle Andrus Peat was a full participant on Thursday while dealing with an ankle injury.
