Saints' Pete Werner: Out for third straight game
Werner (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos.
Werner injured his hamstring leading up to the Saints' Week 5 contest against the Chiefs, which has prevented him from practicing since. He'll miss his third straight game Thursday, and his next chance at suiting up will be Week 8 against the Chargers on Oct. 27. The Saints have played nickel corner packages more often in Werner's absence, which has meant increased defensive snaps for Alontae Taylor, while D'Marco Jackson and Anfernee Orji have provided rotational depth at linebacker behind starters Demario Davis and Willie Gay.

Werner (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Werner didn't practice all week after missing the Saints' Week 5 loss to the Chiefs on Monday night due to a hamstring injury, so it's no surprise he won't suit up Sunday. Expect Anfernee Orji or Jaylan Ford to serve as New Orleans' top weakside linebacker with both Werner and Nephi Sewell (knee) out in Week 6.

Saints' Pete Werner: Dealing with hamstring injury
Werner (hamstring) was listed on the Saints' injury report Saturday, and he is questionable for Monday's game against the Chiefs, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
The injury is recent, as Werner was not listed on the Saints' first two injury reports of the week. He's been officially listed as questionable ahead of Monday's contest, but given that it's a new injury so close to the game, his status may not be known until the inactive lists are released approximately 90 minutes before the 8:15pm ET kickoff. Demario Davis is the only starting linebacker for the Saints that is healthy after Willie Gay (hand) was ruled out for Week 5.
