Defensive end Alex Okafor went down amid Wednesday's indoor practice, was immediately tended to by trainers from the training staff, and after that got up and limped off the field under his own particular power, as per different reports.

The severity of Alex's damage is not public as of now, however it is prominent while considering he is endeavoring to return from a torn Achilles ligament endured in Week 11 of the past 2017 season.

For the present, this gives a chance to Marcus Davenport and Trey Hendrickson to fill Okafor's shoes if he's not ready to return rapidly. Assuming he isn't prepared to make it to the Saints and Cardinals game this Friday,players like Mitchell Loewen, Al-Quadin Muhammad and Jayrone Elliott will likely get more plays.
