Overview
- Reid exited on the first defensive series against the Dolphins and was ruled out after a brief attempt to return in the 21-17 loss.
- Head coach Kellen Moore said the knee issue has potential to cost Reid time and that the team will monitor his progress.
- Reporting indicates further evaluation, likely an MRI, is pending to determine severity and a return timetable.
- With Reid out, Jordan Howden logged about 40 snaps, Terrell Burgess about 42, and rookie Jonas Sanker played roughly 77% of defensive snaps.
- Reid has been a near full-time starter this season and a key locker-room voice, and his potential absence would make him the fourth Saints captain sidelined or let go after Erik McCoy (IR), Brandin Cooks and Blake Grupe (waived).
