    Ruiz (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

  • Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Limited Wednesday

    Ruiz (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    The Michigan product has missed the Saints' last two games due to an ankle injury, but Wednesday's limited session suggests he could be nearing a return. Ruiz likely needs to upgrade to full practice Thursday or Friday in order to avoid an injury designation in the Week 18 matchup against the Falcons on Sunday.

  • Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Won't play vs. Tennessee

    Ruiz (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

  • Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Considered unavailable Thursday

    Ruiz (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate.

  • Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Still nursing ankle injury

    Ruiz (calf) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Ruiz was sidelined in Week 5 versus the Giants due to an ankle injury he suffered in Week 4 at Buffalo, and now it's unclear whether he'll be ready to go for Week 6. He'll likely have to manage a full practice Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

  • Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Unavailable for Week 5

    Ruiz (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Giants, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Ruiz suffered an ankle injury in the team's 31-19 loss to the Bills in Week 4, and he will now be forced to miss at least one contest as a result. In his place, Dillon Radunz (toe) and Torricelli Simpkins are the top candidates to draw the start at right guard versus New York.

  • Saints' Cesar Ruiz: Won't play Week 5, IR candidate

    Head coach Kellen Moore said Monday that Ruiz is considered week-to-week due to an ankle injury and will not play in the Saints' Week 5 clash against the Giants on Sunday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Ruiz sustained the injury when he got rolled up during the Saints' 31-19 loss to the Bills on Sunday. He's already been ruled out for Week 5, and the severity of his injury makes him a candidate for injured reserve, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Undrafted rookie Torricelli Simpkins took over at right guard following Ruiz's injury Sunday, and the former joins Dillon Radunz (toe) as the top candidates to take over as the Saints' starting right guard for as long as Ruiz is sidelined.
