Marquez Valdes-Scantling Listed as Limited in Practice

Marquez Valdes-Scantling has been listed as limited on Wednesday's injury report, marking his first participation since Week 15 due to a chest injury and illness that sidelined him in the previous game against the Saints. This progress gives him a chance to join Chris Olave as a full participant before the upcoming game against the Packers. However, reports indicate that Valdes-Scantling will be OUT for the Monday Night Football game due to ongoing flu symptoms, leaving the Saints to rely on a committee of other players to fill his position. In six games this season, he has recorded 14 receptions for 375 yards and four touchdowns, with most receptions resulting in first downs. His absence will affect the Saints' offensive strategy, as they look to compensate for his significant contributions.
