- Zay Flowers — hamstring; did not participate and remains day-to-day.
- Ronnie Stanley — toe issue; missed practice and raises concerns about left tackle availability.
- Nnamdi Madubuike — limited/absent while returning from neck surgery; unlikely to play without practice reps.
- Trey Hendrickson — finger injury; did not participate Thursday and his absence would reduce pass-rush depth.
- If Flowers is limited or out, Baltimore loses its Week 1 explosive receiving threat and must rely more on other targets and additions.
- Stanley’s absence would force backup linemen into crucial pass-protection and run-blocking roles versus New Orleans.
- Madubuike and Hendrickson’s limitations would weaken the interior push and edge pressure, potentially reducing the defense’s ability to disrupt the Saints' passing game.
- Friday’s practice is the last full session before Sunday — participation there is the key indicator for Flowers and others.
- The team will issue final game-status designations after Friday practice.
- Expect roster or role adjustments if any of these players are ruled limited or out.
