New Orleans Saints rookie cornerback Damian Swann said he missed last Sunday's game at Indianapolis after new concussion-related symptoms cropped up during the practice week.

Swann suffered a concussion Oct. 11 at Philadelphia and missed the next game against the Atlanta Falcons. Swann said he passed the NFL-mandated concussion protocol but didn't feel completely well after returning to practice for one day last week.

"There were still some things going on, so I think it was the best for me to just give it a little more time," Swann said.

Swann said he expects to play when the Saints (3-4) face the New York Giants (4-3) on Sunday at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

"I think I should be ready. I had a better day today," he said. "I'm feeling a lot better, doing a lot better."
