Saints Edge Chase Young is off the injury report for Sunday's game against the Patriots after putting in a full practice Friday. That means Young will make his season debut after missing the first five games with a calf injury.
What They're Saying
HC Kellen Moore: "Chase has just done so much. You're so happy to see him out on the field. He deserves it, he earned it. Nothing's been easy on this path for him, and so he's had an excellent week of practice, done an excellent job and certainly there'll be some juice and excitement for him just to get out there."

Young has put in just the one full practice, after limited workouts Wednesday and Thursday. So it's tough to expect him to get his full snap allotment in this game.
It's an upside matchup for New Orleans pass rushers, though. Drake Maye carries the league's fourth-highest sack rate and has taken three of them in four of his five outings this year.
Young has been a low-floor IDP option even when healthy and doesn't sit high in our Week 6 DL rankings. But he could be worth stashing ahead of Sunday's game in deeper leagues.
