Wide receiver Rashid Shaheed expects to be back on the field to help the Saints with their playoff push this weekend.
Shaheed has missed the last two games with a thigh injury, but he practiced on Wednesday in a limited capacity and then told reporters that he believes he will be in the lineup against the Giants on Sunday.
“I think I’ll be good to go. I went out there and practiced today and it felt good. No setbacks or nothing,” Shaheed said, via Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com.
Shaheed has been a potent deep threat when healthy this season. He has 33 catches for 534 yards and three touchdowns and he’s also returned a punt for a touchdown, so the Saints would get a boost on multiple fronts by welcoming him back to the lineup.
