Saints' Carl Granderson: Full participant in walkthrough
Granderson (neck) was a full participant during the Saints' walkthrough practice Tuesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Granderson was estimated as a limited participant Monday due to a neck injury he sustained during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. It appears to be a minor issue, however, and he should avoid an injury designation heading into Thursday's game against the Broncos. Granderson has accumulated 24 tackles (13 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through the first six games of the regular season.

Saints' Carl Granderson: Estimated as limited Monday
Granderson (neck) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimation.
Granderson played 76 percent of the Saints' defensive snaps and recorded two total tackles in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, but it appears he sustained a neck injury in the process. The Wyoming product will likely play through the injury in Thursday night's matchup against the Broncos unless he downgrades to a DNP either Tuesday or Wednesday.

Saints' Carl Granderson: Logs career highs in 2023
Granderson finished the 2023 regular season with a career-high 78 tackles and a career-high 8.5 sacks across 17 games.
Granderson showed promise as an edge rusher over the first four seasons of his career, totaling 14.5 sacks while playing a rotational role across 54 appearances. New Orleans locked in the 2019 undrafted free agent with a four-year, $52 million contract in September. In return, he rewarded the Saints with a team high in sacks as well as the team's third-most tackles behind inside linebackers Pete Werner and Demario Davis. With 34-year-old defensive end and franchise stalwart Cameron Jordan's production and availability slipping over each of the past three seasons, Granderson appears poised to play a vital role at pass rusher once again in 2024.

The Saints did not practice Monday, and Granderson was estimated to be limited at Tuesday's walk-through practice, but he was listed as a full participant for Wednesday's walk-through, removing any doubt that he'll play in Week 16. He'll resume his role as the Saints' top pass rusher Thursday.

Granderson (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Granderson's participation level was just an estimate with the Saints on a short week, as they play Thursday against the Rams and didn't hold an actual practice Monday. His status for practice Tuesday and Wednesday should give better insight into his chances of playing Week 16.

Granderson recorded six tackles (three solo), including one sack and two tackles for loss in Sunday's 20-13 defeat against the Texans.
