Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Good to go against Cleveland
McKinstry (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns.
McKinstry finished the week strong with back-to-back full practices, and he will return Sunday from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury. The rookie second-round pick should see a significant uptick in defensive snaps after Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) was traded to the Commanders at the trade deadline Nov. 5.

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Questionable vs. Browns
McKinstry (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland.
Despite logging consecutive full practices to end the week, McKinstry will still draw the questionable tag after missing the Saints' last two games due to a hamstring injury. If McKinstry is able to return Sunday, he would reclaim his starting spot at corner alongside Alontae Taylor; otherwise, Shemar Jean-Charles would draw the start for a third straight game.

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Past hamstring injury

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Begins week with limited work
McKinstry (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
McKinstry had logged five consecutive DNPs before Wednesday's limited session, which suggests he could be nearing a return to the field. The 2024 second-round pick's participation in practice both Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play in the Saints' Week 11 matchup against the Browns.

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Missing another week
McKinstry (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Falcons.
The rookie corner from Alabama was unable to practice all week after missing the Saints' Week 9 loss to the Panthers due to a hamstring injury, so it's no surprise he won't suit up in Week 10. Shemar Jean-Charles is expected to start opposite Rico Payton (back) as part of the Saints' top outside cornerback duo in McKinstry's stead.

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Opens week as DNP
McKinstry (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.
McKinstry was sidelined for the Saints' Week 9 loss to the Panthers after likely aggravating his hamstring injury in practice, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he could be in jeopardy of missing more time. The 2024 second-round pick likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to play in Week 10, when the Saints host the Falcons.

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Ruled out for Sunday
Head coach Dennis Allens said Friday that McKinstry (hamstring) won't play in Sunday's game against the Panthers.
McKinstry appears to have worsened his hamstring issue in practice this week, as he recorded a limited session Wednesday then downgraded to DNPs both Thursday and Friday. With each of the Saints' top two outside cornerbacks, McKinstry and Marshon Lattimore (hamstring), sidelined in Week 9, Rico Payton (back) and Ugo Amadi could see increased work with New Orleans' first-team defense.

Saints' Kool-Aid McKinstry: Dealing with hamstring injury
McKinstry (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
McKinstry got his second start of the season in Week 8 against the Broncos, during which he registered five tackles (four solo) and one pass breakup. The rookie second-round pick is set to see more snaps with the first-team defense following the season-ending injury to Paulson Adebo (lower leg). However, McKinstry has been working through a hamstring injury this week that limited him in practice Wednesday and kept him off the field Thursday. It's a trend in the wrong direction, but he'll have a chance to return to practice Friday, though he'll likely be tagged with an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Carolina.
