Ginn (knee) missed another practice Friday, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn has been dealing with a knee injury since Week 1 and is yet to miss a game. Back-to-back practice absences isn't a great sign, but he does have an extra day to get ready with the Saints hosting the Redskins on Monday Night Football in Week 5. We'll have another update Saturday when the Saints release their final injury report.

Ginn (knee) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn was troubled by a knee issue last week, but he advanced to full practice by Thursday to ensure his availability for the team's 33-18 win over the Giants. It's unclear if he experienced a setback with the knee in that contest or if the Saints were simply withholding him for the first practice of Week 5 for precautionary purposes. A better picture of Ginn's health -- as well as his status heading into Monday's matchup with Washington -- should come by the team's final practice Saturday.

Ginn failed to haul in any of his three targets, but he did gain one yard on a carry in Sunday's 33-18 win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn was blanked by a surprisingly effective Giants secondary, which held quarterback Drew Brees out of the end zone and didn't allow any of New Orleans' wide receivers to break 50 yards. Cameron Meredith -- who's pushing Ginn for the No. 2 wide receiver job behind Michael Thomas -- finished with three catches for 32 yards on four targets. Ginn will look to create some separation between himself and Meredith in Week 5 against the Redskins.

Ginn (knee) practiced fully Thursday, the Saints' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn's practice reps have been managed the past three weeks as a result of a knee injury, but it hasn't stopped him from taking the field on game days. After three contests, he's received at least six targets in each one, sitting a distant third (6.3 per game) on the team to Michael Thomas (13.3) and Alvin Kamara (12.7). Ginn will look to produce Sunday versus a Giants defense that has conceded 8.0 yards per target to wide receivers this season.

Ginn was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Saints capped Ginn's practice reps last week as well, but he proceeded to be cleared for Sunday's game in Atlanta. During the Saints' overtime win, he managed season lows in catches (three) and yards (12), but one of those grabs doubled as his second touchdown of the season. Assuming he follows a similar practice regimen this week, he'll take on a Giants defense Sunday that has allowed 8.0 YPT but just one TD to wideouts through three contests.

Ginn caught three-of-six targets for 12 yards, including a four-yard touchdown reception, in Sunday's win against the Falcons. He also gained 20 yards on one carry.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn was limited during the week with a knee injury but he ended up playing 52 of the Saints' 79 offensive snaps. His first-quarter touchdown led off what was a high-scoring affair in New Orleans, but Ginn was relatively quiet otherwise, with the exception of a couple egregious drops. Nevertheless, the former Ohio State Buckeye continues to see the bulk of the snaps opposite Michael Thomas -- even as Cameron Meredith made his Saints debut in Week 3 -- and Ginn should continue to be a decent option in deep leagues, particularly as the bye weeks begin.

Ginn (knee) doesn't have a designation on the final injury report for Sunday's game in Atlanta, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Saints have reduced Ginn's practice workload the past two weeks in an effort to reduce stress on his ailing knee. He was a limited participant throughout the week, never in true danger of missing Sunday's potential shootout. Ginn will fill his usual role as the No. 2 wide receiver in an offense that's been heavily reliant on Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara.

Ginn (knee) expects to play in Sunday's game in Atlanta, Joel A. Erickson of The New Orleans Advocate reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn has kicked off Week 3 preparations with back-to-back limited practices, placing a cloud over his availability. He brushed off some of the doubt with his comments Thursday, but until he ditches the knee injury -- either via Friday's injury report or the release of the Saints' inactive list Sunday -- he'll remain a question mark. If he suits up, there's a chance he adds punt returns to his workload with the placement of Tommylee Lewis (knee) on injured reserve this week.

Ginn (knee) is a candidate to return punts according to head coach Sean Payton, Jeff Duncan of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
New Orleans has an opening at punt returner following the placement of Tommylee Lewis (knee) on IR, and Ginn is one internal candidate with the experience to potentially fill that void. He was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury of his own, but Payton's statements seemed to indicate that Ginn isn't in much danger of missing time. The 33-year-old returned four punts for touchdowns in his career, but his last one came all the way back in 2014 with the Cardinals. Ginn accumulated 103 punt return yards on 19 attempts with the Saints in 2017, but has yet to record an attempt over the first two weeks of 2018. According to Payton, other potential in-house candidates to take on the role include Alvin Kamara and Austin Carr.

Ginn was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Ginn has played third fiddle in the Saints' passing attack through two games this season, with his 13 targets ranking behind Michael Thomas' 30 and Alvin Kamara's 18. The workload has produced a fair enough line of nine catches for 123 yards and one touchdown. After Wednesday's limited session, Ginn appears as if he'll be able to uphold that standard Sunday in Atlanta, but Friday's injury report will give the final work on his Week 3 availability.
