The Saints have been dealing with multiple injuries on the offensive line this week. In his first season with the team, guard Dillon Radunz<\/a> has been spot starting in place of presumed starting guard Trevor Penning<\/a>, who has been dealing with a turf toe injury<\/a> since the preseason.<\/p>\n

Per Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football, Radunz has been ruled out<\/a> as he deals with a toe injury of his own. Penning, though, may be available to retake a starting spot. The fourth-year lineman hasn\u2019t played yet in 2025, but he returned to practice<\/a> on Wednesday, according to ESPN\u2019s Katherine Terrell.<\/p>\n

Formerly the Saints\u2019 starting right tackle, Penning was expected to shift into a starting role on the inside as first-round Texas rookie Kelvin Banks<\/a> took the starting left tackle job, pushing last year\u2019s first-round rookie left tackle, Taliese Fuaga<\/a>, to the right side of the line. Penning was a limited participant for the rest of the week of practice, and he\u2019s listed as questionable, but with Radunz out, Penning may be challenged to make his season debut.<\/p>\n

Fuaga is also listed as questionable, despite not practicing at all this week as he deals with knee and back issues. Joining Radunz with an out designation is defensive end Chase Young<\/a>, who like Penning, has not played yet this year.<\/p>\n

Here are a few other injury updates from around the NFL:<\/p>\n

Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas<\/a> has yet to play in 2025 as he works his way back from a Lisfranc injury from 2024. The veteran lineman is listed as questionable this week and has been rumored as likely to play<\/a>. He may be able to do so without fully coming back. Per Ryan Dunleavy of New York Post Sports, Thomas hasn\u2019t \u201cruled out that he could play in a rotation<\/a> as he works his way back\u201d with a focus on longevity. The team will see how he feels<\/a> today before making a final decision on his status for tomorrow, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, but the idea of using a rotation to ease him in is seemingly gaining popularity.
\nThe Seahawks sustained injuries over the last week to running back Zach Charbonnet<\/a>, cornerback Devon Witherspoon<\/a>, and safety Julian Love<\/a>. There was worry that each player could be out for an extended period of time, but The Athletic\u2019s Michael-Shawn Dugar reports that none of the three<\/a> are being considered for stints on injured reserve. All three, though, are doubtful to play in Week 3.
\nAfter tight end Isaiah Likely<\/a> suffered a foot injury in training camp, the Ravens opted not to place him on any injured lists to avoid a guaranteed four-week absence. The 25-year-old returned to practice this week but won\u2019t be active to play<\/a> on Monday. They\u2019ll likely aim to have him back in time Week 4. Joining Likely as a scratch this week<\/a> will be defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike<\/a>, per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Madubuike is dealing with a neck injury, and the team is evaluating some symptoms they\u2019ve seen throughout the week to be safe. Sixth-round rookie Aeneas Peebles<\/a> is likely to get some increased run this week as a result.
\nAs for the other Monday Night Football team, the Lions will be without<\/a> pass rusher Marcus Davenport<\/a> for their trip to Baltimore, per Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. Davenport declined to give any details about the nature of his injury, but his arm has been seen in a sling<\/a>. Whatever the situation, head coach Dan Campbell does not see the situation as season-ending.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Saints have been dealing with multiple injuries on the offensive line this week.
