When the Saints released their first preseason depth chart, Luke McCown was listed the second-string quarterback and Ryan Griffin the third.

That’s only really pertinent because the guy in front of them on the list missed another practice.

According to Evan Woodbery of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, quarterback Drew Brees missed another practice because of his strained left oblique.

He skipped Saturday’s scrimmage because of the injury, and the Saints had Sunday off, so it’s an extended rest for the veteran quarterback.

Brees was on the practice field and not wearing pads, and coach Sean Payton has only said he was “day-to-day.”

As we all are.
