InjuryActive18d ago

Julian Blackmon — Active

Blackman logged three consecutive limited practices during the Saints' Week 5 prep and was declared questionable for Sunday's contest. The free safety is all set to suit up against the Vikings, leaving Jonas Sanker to remain in the backup role.

InjuryQuestionable20d ago

Julian Blackmon — Questionable

Blackmon was limited in practice all week due to a shoulder injury, which he likely picked up during the Saints' loss to the Falcons this past Monday. His status for Sunday's game may not be known until the Saints announce their list of inactive players about 90 minutes before the 1:00pm ET kickoff. Jonas Sanker would be the top candidate to start alongside Justin Reid at safety if Blackmon is not cleared to play.

InjuryQuestionable21d ago

Julian Blackmon — Questionable

Blackmon has played every defensive snap for New Orleans so far this season, but he appears to have hurt his shoulder in Monday's loss to Atlanta. With a pair of limited practices under his belt to begin Week 5 prep, Blackmon has a chance to suit up Sunday versus Minnesota, though he may enter the weekend with an injury designation if he's not able to practice in full Friday.

InjuryQuestionable22d ago

Julian Blackmon — Questionable

Blackmon played all 57 of the Saints' defensive snaps in the blowout loss. Despite a long night for the defensive unit, the free safety tallied four more tackles than the next closest Saints defenders (Tyree Wilson and Jonas Sanker).

InjuryQuestionable22d ago

Julian Blackmon — Questionable

The Saints only held a walk-through practice to start the week, and the precise nature of the injury is unclear, but the estimation suggests it's probably nothing too severe. If he can practice in full Thursday or Friday, he might be able to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend altogether.

InjuryActive27d ago

Julian Blackmon — Active

Blackmon was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. The free safety's ability to practice fully Friday is a great sign that he has recovered from his calf injury. If Blackmon can practice fully again Saturday, he should be able to avoid any injury designation ahead of Monday night's game against the Falcons.

InjuryActive28d ago

Julian Blackmon — Active

Blackmon is dealing with a calf injury to open the week, forcing him to be limited at Thursday's session. The safety will have two more opportunities to log a full practice prior to Monday night's matchup with Atlanta.
