Michael Thomas, Trevor Penning, Cesar Ruiz? A player-by-player report on Saints' injury list.

BY JEFF DUNCAN | SPORTS COLUMNIST 4 hrs ago

The Saints are expected to have nearly every player available for the start of training camp in late July, head coach Dennis Allen said Thursday.

A handful of players missed the team’s offseason workouts while recovering from offseason medical procedures, including receiver Michael Thomas, offensive linemen Trevor Penning and Cesar Ruiz and rookie running back Kendre Miller, but Allen said he expects nearly 100 percent participation for training camp.

“As we sit here right now, there’s one player that may be questionable for the start of training camp and I’m optimistic he’ll be ready,” Allen said. “(Otherwise) I feel pretty good that we’ll have everyone healthy and ready to go (for camp).”

Allen declined to name the player whose status remained uncertain. Anthony Johnson, an undrafted rookie defensive back from Virginia, has missed practice lately with an unspecified injury. He was recently seen on crutches at the Saints facility.

Here’s an update on the rest of the Saints’ walking wounded:

I wonder who the one player is that might not be ready to participate in training camp. We finished the season with an awful lot of players on IR so I'm not surprised someone will be unavailable to start training camp with after several offseason surgeries. Last month we had players getting their hardware removed from surgeries and still making it out to practice rather than rehabbing on their own. There is a solid commitment team building going on now from the players and coaches.
