Roby recorded eight tackles (six solo) and one pass defended during Monday's 17-16 defeat versus the Buccaneers. Roby managed to suit up Week 13 after sustaining a concussion in New Orleans' Week 12 loss to the 49ers, and he recorded a season high in tackles versus Tampa Bay. The 30-year-old also continued to play nearly every defensive snap alongside starting cornerbacks Paulson Adebo and Alontae Taylor, as top cover man Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) remained out for the eighth game in a row. It's possible Roby's playing time could take a hit if Lattimore is able to return following the Saints' Week 14 bye.

The Saints reinstated Roby (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday. Roby is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, and his return should provide a nice boost to a New Orleans secondary that will likely be without No. 1 cornerback Marshon Lattimore (abdomen), who is listed as questionable but appears on track to miss a seventh consecutive game. Before landing on IR on Oct. 25 with an ankle injury, Roby totaled 20 tackles and two pass breakups in seven appearances for New Orleans.

New Orleans designated Roby (ankle) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports. Roby hit IR on Oct. 25 after injuring his ankle in Week 7 against Arizona. He's sat out the mandatory four games, and the Saints now have a 21-day window to activate him. Prior to landing on IR, Roby played in seven games and tallied 20 tackles (16 solo), two pass defenses and a recovered fumble.

Roby (ankle) was ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Cardinals. Roby recorded one tackle before exiting with an ankle injury in the first quarter, and his absence will leave New Orleans' secondary severely undermanned with starting cornerbacks Paulson Adebo (knee) and Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) already inactive. As a result, expect Alontae Taylor, Chris Harris, and Bryce Thompson to step into larger roles against Arizona. Roby's next opportunity to play will come against the Raiders on Sunday, Oct. 30.

Roby (shoulder) is out Sunday against the Panthers, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports. Roby was unable to practice Friday with the injury. Roby's absence will weaken the Saints' secondary depth against the Panthers on Sunday, and likely create extra snaps for Ken Crawley and Bryce Thompson.
