Saints head coach Kellen Moore said Tuesday that Neal (undisclosed) will be limited at minicamp due to a minor injury suffered in early June, Erin Summers of ESPN reports.
Neal's exact injury remains undisclosed, but it doesn't appear severe enough to cause concern about his status for the start of training camp in July. Still, the 2025 sixth-round pick will be limited at mandatory minicamp as he competes for a backfield role. With New Orleans having inked Travis Etienne to a four-year, $52 million contract in March while still carrying Alvin Kamara on the roster, there may not be much work available for backups Neal, Kendre Miller (ACL), Ty Chandler and Audric Estime.
