  • Saints' Bradley Roby: Eight stops Monday

    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.

  • Saints' Bradley Roby: Comes off IR

    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.

  • Saints' Bradley Roby: Won't return Thursday

    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.

  • Texans' Bradley Roby: Shut down for season

  • Texans' Bradley Roby: Expected to return Week 10

    Coach Romeo Crennel said Roby likely will play in the Week 10 matchup against the Browns, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports. Roby didn't suit up in Sunday's win over the Jaguars due to disciplinary reasons, but it appears that will be the extent of his punishment. Houston's secondary was clearly out of sorts Sunday, allowing rookie quarterback Jake Luton to throw for 304 passing yards, a touchdown and an interception in his NFL debut. Roby should be a boost, as he's yielded just 5.0 yards per target this season.

    Roby won't play in Sunday's game against the Jaguars due to disciplinary reasons, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports. It was reported Saturday that Roby wouldn't be traveling for the game for unspecified reasons, as the cornerback appears to have upset the coaching staff.

  • Texans' Bradley Roby: Won't play against Jaguars

    Roby (undisclosed) didn't travel with the team and won't play in Sunday's game versus the Jaguars, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. This isn't related to an injury or COVID-19, but the team didn't reveal any further details about why Roby won't play against the divisional opponent. The 28-year-old is Houston's best cornerback, so now Vernon Hargreaves and Phillip Gaines will be responsible for covering DJ Chark and Laviska Shenault, who will be catching balls from rookie Jake Luton. The team likely will clarify Roby's situation in the upcoming week.

The 2014 first-rounder worked in a limited practice capacity for the last two weeks, and he hopes to elevate to full participation by Friday. Roby has allowed 6.5 yards per target this year, so he'll look to help shut down the Patriots' strong passing attack.
