Shaheed (toe/foot) isn't taking the field for Sunday's preseason game against the 49ers, Luke Johnson of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Shaheed will unsurprisingly sit out Sunday's exhibition contest after missing practice Friday due to a health concern. The wide receiver and return specialist has had an injury-riddled training camp, having previously dealt with a hamstring issue. Shaheed still has three weeks to recover before the Sept. 8 regular-season opener against the Panthers, and he'll have an opportunity to suit up before then for the Aug. 25 preseason finale against the Titans.
