Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed returned to full practice recently after dealing with a hamstring injury, but a new issue had him on the sideline Friday.
Head coach Dennis Allen said at his press conference that Shaheed did not practice because of an injury to his toe or foot. Allen did not say whether Shaheed was slated to play in Sunday’s preseason game, but any injury concern at this point in the calendar would point to the team taking a cautious approach.
Shaheed signed a one-year contract extension with the Saints this offseason that keeps him under contract through the 2025 campaign.
