The Times-Picayune reports Saints QB Aaron Brooks was rolling out and firing spirals during his first full workout since re-straining his quadriceps a week earlier. Brooks' playing status for the game against the Dolphins won't be made until Friday morning, Haslett said. Brooks said his thigh was feeling "much better" Monday than it did a week ago, when he missed four practices and sat out the Saints' 17-13 win at Chicago last Friday. Still, he has reservations about a recurrence of the injury. CB Fred Thomas, CB Jason Craft and S Deveron Harper are questionable for the Saints' final exhibition game Friday night against Miami at the Superdome. Thomas (right foot), Craft (left ankle) and Harper (right hamstring) did not practice Monday. Besides Thomas, Craft and Harper, TE Boo Williams (neck) also did not practice. LB Cie Grant (knee) and DL Willie Whitehead (knee) remain sidelined. RB Aaron Stecker (neck stinger) and Steve Gleason (broken thumb) returned to practice.
