Cornerback Jabari Greer was held out of practice Wednesday and doesn't seem likely to return to action this week at Atlanta. Although Greer practiced on a limited basis the last two weeks, General Manager Mickey Loomis told Sirius Satellite Radio that Greer will miss a couple more weeks. And Coach Sean Payton revealed Wednesday that Greer is dealing with both groin and abdomen injuries.

"Here's the thing, there's two aspects to the groin," Payton said. "There's the groin and the abdomen area. And so one aspect he's getting better, and the other we're still working on with the rehab."

Also missing practice Wednesday were cornerback Tracy Porter (knee), linebacker Scott Fujita (knee) and linebacker Marvin Mitchell (hamstring). They are all expected to miss Sunday's game as well.

Fourteen players were limited in Wednesday's practice -- including receiver Lance Moore, who could be close to returning after missing the last five games with ankle and hamstring injuries, and cornerback Randall Gay, who missed last Sunday's game with a hamstring injury.

The others were: tailback Reggie Bush (knee), tailback Pierre Thomas (quad), tailback Mike Bell (knee), tailback Lynell Hamilton (shoulder), offensive tackle Jermon Bushrod (thumb), guard Jahri Evans (toe), center Jonathan Goodwin (ankle), tight end Darnell Dinkins (foot), defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis (knee), defensive end Bobby McCray (knee), linebacker Jonathan Vilma (knee) and safety Usama Young (hip/calf).
