Werner (hand) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Browns, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werner is expected to be a game-time decision, Jeff Nowak of Audacy Sports reports. The Saints want to make sure Werner can't do any further damage to the hand before clearing him to play. Werner missed three games earlier in the season with a hamstring issue.

Werner (hand) didn't practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Werner played 49 defensive snaps and recorded five total tackles and one pass defended before exiting Sunday's win over the Falcons with a hand injury. Wednesday's DNP suggests that issue could be serious, and the Ohio State product will likely have to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up in Week 11, when the Saints host the Browns.

Werner (hand) is questionable to return to New Orleans' matchup Sunday versus the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

Werner went down with a hand injury in the second half of the matchup, leaving his status for the rest of the game up in the air. Anfernee Orji is now in at linebacker in Werner's place.

Werner racked up eight tackles, including one for a loss, in Sunday's defeat against the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Werner paced New Orleans in stops and tied his second-highest total of the season. The fourth-year pro missed Weeks 5-7 due to a hamstring injury but has racked up 17 total tackles in two games since his return. Werner has totaled 38 stops (25 solo) across six contests on the campaign.

Werner recorded nine tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 26-8 loss against the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Werner played nearly every single one of the Saints' defensive snaps in his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, and he actually set a new season-high tackle total for himself. He'll be on the fringe of IDP consideration in some formats for a Week 9 showdown at Carolina.

Werner (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werner upgraded from limited work Wednesday and Thursday to a full session Friday, suggesting he's moved past his hamstring issue in time for Sunday's contest. Expect Werner to start alongside Demario Davis and Willie Gay in New Orleans' inside linebacker corps in Week 8.

Werner (hamstring) was a limited participant at the Saints' practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Werner has missed the team's last three games while nursing a hamstring injury, making his ability to practice Wednesday worth noting. The linebacker will attempt to increase his workload during the rest of the week in order to return to the field Sunday versus the Chargers.

Werner (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

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) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimation.

EDGE Analysis

Werner has missed the Saints' last two contests after sustaining a hamstring injury during practice, and Monday's estimated DNP indicates he's likely a longshot to return in Week 7. However, if Werner can upgrade to at least limited work either Tuesday or Wednesday, he'll have a better chance of suiting up Thursday night.

Werner (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

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.
