Activated from injured reserve The Saints activated Wood (calf) from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact New Orleans' long snapper remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, but the move paves the way for him to play in Week 6. Scott Daly has been handling long-snapping duties with Wood sidelined the last four weeks.

Designated to return from IR The Saints designated Wood (calf) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Wood was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. The Saints now have until Nov. 4 to return the long snapper to the active roster, or he must spend the remainder of the 2026 season on IR.

Placed on IR The Saints placed Wood (calf) on injured reserve Friday.

Impact Wood's new calf injury is set to keep him away from the field for at least four weeks. Now on IR, Wood's timeline should sync up perfectly, as he will be unable to leave the list for a minimum of four games anyway. The Saints will likely utilize new practice squad addition Scott Daly as the interim longsnapper by elevating him to the roster for Sunday's game against the Ravens.
