  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Expects to play Thursday

    Coach Dennis Allen said Monday that he expects Mathieu (forearm) to play versus the Broncos on Thursday night, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Mathieu was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers early by a wrist injury, but it's apparently not anything severe. If his coach's optimism proves to be misplaced, Johnathan Abram would be next in line at safety.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Past forearm issue

    Mathieu (forearm) was listed as a full participant on Monday's practice estimation.

    Mathieu sustained a forearm injury in the Saints' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers, but Monday's full practice estimation suggests he's already moved past the issue. Expect the 12th-year pro to serve as the Saints' top free safety in Thursday night's matchup against the Broncos.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Done for Week 6

    Mathieu (forearm) has been ruled out from returning to Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.

    Mathieu exited with a forearm injury in the second quarter and was officially ruled out early in the fourth. He logged one tackle prior to his exit. Johnathan Abram is in line for plenty of work for the remainder of the game with Mathieu not able to return.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Questionable to return Sunday

    Mathieu is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buccaneers due to a forearm injury.

    Mathieu recorded one solo tackle before leaving the game in the second quarter. If he's unable to return, Johnathan Abram and J.T. Gray would be candidates for increased defensive snaps.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Appears past multiple injuries

    Mathieu (calf/heel/groin) was a full participant in Thursday's practice session.

    Mathieu has been playing through multiple lower-body injuries early in the regular season. However, he was absent from Thursday's injury report, indicating that he was a full participant in practice and should be good to go for Monday's game against Kansas City. On the year, Mathieu has tallied 16 tackles (15 solo), three passes defended, including two interceptions, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Battling multiple injuries

    Mathieu is dealing with injuries to his calf, heel and groin, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Mathieu left midway through the fourth quarter of Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Falcons due to a groin injury. The 2013 third-round pick told reporters after the game that he had a calf injury earlier in the season and entered Sunday's contest with a lingering heel injury. The Saints will have an extra day's rest heading into their next game against the Chiefs on Oct. 7, and given the myriad of lower-body injuries, Mathieu could be limited or held out of practices leading up to that contest. Through the first four games of the regular season, he's registered 17 tackles (16 solo) and one interception.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Leaves game early

    Mathieu (groin) has exited Sunday's game against the Falcons, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.

    Mathieu's exit came about halfway through the fourth quarter and after his two total tackles in the contest. The veteran safety is questionable to return, although there is little time left in the game. Jordan Howden will likely step in at free safety for Mathieu.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Past heel injury

    Mathieu (heel) practiced in full Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Eagles, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Mathieu logged back-to-back limited practices to start the week, but he was able to participate without restrictions Friday and will be good to go for Sunday's NFC showdown. The 2013 third-round pick has tallied seven solo tackles and one interception over the first two games of the regular season.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Continuing to nurse heel injury

    Mathieu (heel) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Mathieu had been dealing with the heel injury leading up to Week 2 against the Cowboys, but he was able to suit up for that contest after starting the week as a DNP. The fact that he started this week as a limited participant suggests that the 2013 third-round pick is progressing through the injury, and barring any setbacks, he should be good to go for Week 3 against the Eagles. Through the first two games of the season, Mathieu has accrued seven solo tackles, two passes defended, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Ready for Sunday

    Mathieu (heel) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    The 12-year veteran went from logging a DNP on Wednesday to a full practice session Friday, indicating that he's moved past his heel injury. Mathieu recorded four total tackles and one forced fumble during the Saints' Week 1 win, and he'll look to build on that impressive showing Sunday.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Gets on field

    Mathieu (heel) was a limited participant during practice Thursday.

    Mathieu missed practice Wednesday, so this is a step in the right direction for the veteran safety and puts him on a trajectory to suit up Sunday against the Cowboys. However, his status on Friday's injury report will be worth monitoring.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Misses practice with heel injury

    Mathieu (heel) did not practice Wednesday.

    Mathieu is coming off a dominant Week 1 performance against the Panthers, in which he tallied four solo tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. The star safety's availability will be crucial for the Saints as the team prepares to take on the Cowboys on Sunday, so it will be worth monitoring whether Mathieu is able to do more in practice Thursday and/or Friday.

  • Saints' Tyrann Mathieu: Recovers fumble vs. Panthers

    Mathieu registered four solo tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in Sunday's 47-10 win over the Panthers.

    Mathieu punched the ball out of Jonathan Mingo's hands in the second quarter of Sunday's game, and the former was able to recover the fumble, leading to a 52-yard field goal by Blake Grupe seven plays later. Mathieu registered all four of his tackles in the first half and finished the game playing just 25 defensive snaps, but that was due to game script and the Saints' large lead. The 2013 third-round pick will see a much tougher challenge against Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and the Cowboys in Week 2.
