Perry didn't practice Thursday due to a hand injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Perry is making a sudden appearance on the Saints' Week 1 practice report, making his status worthwhile to follow in advance of the weekend. Ultimately, his listing on Friday's report will give a sense of his potential to play Sunday against the Panthers. Perry put together an impressive preseason, leading the entire NFL with 176 receiving yards and putting himself in a position to be a regular wide receiver in New Orleans' offense in 2024.
