What is the story about?

Chris Olave returned to practice on Thursday after resting during the New Orleans Saints' first session on Wednesday, but he was limited with a new foot injury. We'll see if it limits him further on Friday or in Sunday's home game with the Minnesota Vikings, but it's obviously concerning to see the team's best player slowed down after taking some shots late in a blowout loss on Monday night. The Saints' coaching staff may need to do a better job protecting him from himself in those situations in the future.

As for the rest of the injury report? Veteran running back Alvin Kamara (back) and rookie wide receiver Barion Brown (thigh) both returned to practice on Thursday, while starting quarterback Tyler Shough (left hand) upgraded to full participation.

Rookie offensive lineman Jeremiah Wright (concussion) was limited after entering the NFL concussion protocol, so he must have gotten injured at practice. He isn't a starter but that is still a situation to monitor for the young pro moving forwards.
