Young (calf) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

The edge rusher did not have an injury designation a day earlier. Young also played on 59 defensive snaps and broke up a pass in the Saints' Week 1 overtime loss the Lions. His status for Week 2 is now at least somewhat in doubt.

Dejean (calf) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.

Dejean missed practice with a calf issue Wednesday, but he was able to get back onto the practice field Thursday. If he can upgrade to full participation Friday, he could still avoid taking an injury designation into the weekend.

Jordan (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

The defensive end missed the Saints' Week 1 overtime loss to the Lions and was limited in practice Wednesday as well. Jordan has been dealing with the hamstring issue since early August, but he is at least trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Ravens.

Oluokun (wrist) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.

It's still unknown exactly when Oluokun picked up the wrist issue, but his availability for Week 2 now seems to be in jeopardy regardless. He'll likely need to practice in full Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Delp (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice for the second straight day Thursday.

The tight end has been dealing with the hamstring issue since August and had to miss the Saints' Week 1 loss to the Lions. Delp had to miss practices last week, though, so he is at least trending in the right direction. The third-round pick in April's draft is still trying to make his regular-season NFL debut.

Cashman (wrist) was a full participant at the Vikings' practice Thursday.

Cashman opened the week with a limited session Wednesday due to a wrist injury, but he now appears to be good to go for Week 2. The 30-year-old compiled seven total tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, in Week 1 against the Packers, and the team is taking on a Bears offense Sunday that scored 59 points in their regular-season opener.

Hendrickson (finger) did not participate at practice Thursday.

Hendrickson was a surprise addition to Baltimore's injury report Wednesday, and now his status for Week 2 is up in the air. He'll probably have to practice in some capacity Friday to have any chance of being active Sunday versus the Saints.

Hargrave (knee/concussion) did not participate in practice Thursday.

The defensive tackle was limited Wednesday. Hargrave played on 29 defensive snaps and one special-teams snap last week against Minnesota, making one tackle. If he can't go Sunday, Jonathan Ford is the next man up at nose tackle.

Newsome (ribs) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The exact nature of his injury is still unknown, but Newsome's status for Week 2 is now up in the air. If he can't return to practice in full Friday or Saturday, he might end up carrying an injury designation on the final injury report before Monday night's game against the Rams.

Banks (calf) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News, Banks was working off to the side with trainers Thursday. It's not clear when he sustained the calf injury, but it doesn't look like it's anything too severe. If he's able to manage a full practice Friday, he could still avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.
