He was eventually able to walk to the sideline medical tent on his own. After an evaluation in the tent, he walked to the Saints locker room. The Saints punted on the next play, and Winston replaced him on the next New Orleans possession.
The Saints announced that he was being evaluated by a shoulder injury and officially listed him as questionable to return.
This is a developing story that will be updated.
