Yiadom (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Yiadom was a full participant in Friday's practice, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery from a hamstring injury to return for Week 7. His absence means Quincy Riley will continue to see extended work out of the nickel cornerback position. Yiadom's next opportunity to play is Week 8 against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 26.

Yiadom (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite practicing in full Friday, Yiadom is still is jeopardy of missing a third consecutive game due to a hamstring issue. The ninth-year pro has tallied 16 total tackles through four appearances with New Orleans this season. If active, he's likely to start as the team's No. 1 slot corner.

Yiadom (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The cornerback missed Wednesday's session as well as the last two games. Yiadom now appears on the right track ahead of Sunday's clash with the Bears. The slot corner recorded 16 tackles (11 solo) across New Orleans' first four games.

Yiadom (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Yiadom missed his second straight game in Week 6 due to a lingering hamstring injury, and now his availability for Week 7 is also in doubt. He'll probably need to return to practice Thursday or Friday to have any chance of suiting up Sunday at Chicago.

Yiadom (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran cornerback from Boston College logged consecutive DNPs to open the Saints' week of practice and is now in line to miss his second game in a row Sunday. Yiadom appeared in each of New Orleans' first four contests this season, recording 16 total tackles across 140 defensive snaps. Rookie fourth-round pick Quincy Riley is expected to draw his second start at slot corner in Yiadom's stead.

Yiadom (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Yiadom was sidelined for New Orleans' Week 5 win over the Giants. His inability to practice Wednesday isn't encouraging, but he'll have the chance to ramp up his activity as the week progresses toward Sunday's matchup against New England.

Yiadom (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Paras, Yiadom sustained a hamstring injury during practice this past week. The injury prevented Yiadom from participating in practice Thursday and Friday, and the 2018 third-rounder will not take the field for Week 5 as a result. Quincy Riley has seen the field on defense in each of the last two games, and he figures to be the top candidate for an increased role in the secondary Sunday in Yiadom's absence. Week 6 against the Patriots on Sunday, Oct. 12 is Yiadom's next opportunity to play.

Yiadom was a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to a hamstring injury.
EDGE Analysis
Yiadom may have picked up the injury during the Saints' Week 4 loss to the Bills, when he logged three tackles (one solo) while playing just 21 snaps (12 on defense, nine on special teams). He didn't practice Wednesday, but his ability to log a limited session Thursday indicates that he is progressing in his recovery. Friday's injury report will provide clarity on Yiadom's chances of playing against the Giants on Sunday in New Orleans. Rookie fourth-rounder Quincy Riley played a season-high 24 snaps on defense in Week 4 and would likely see even more playing time Sunday if Yiadom is not cleared to play.

Yiadom agreed to a three-year deal with the Saints on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The seventh-year veteran is heading back to New Orleans, having spent the 2022 and 2023 seasons with the Saints. The deal includes $4.86 million guaranteed with a maximum value of $10.5 million. Yiadom, who played well in limited exposure with the 49ers last year, is expected to provide some versatility to a secondary that at minimum needs some depth, if not outright flexibility to move a preferred option, whether that be Alontae Taylor, or a projected draft pick, into the starting slot.
