METAIRIE, La. — New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton just finished his final press conference before Sunday’s NFC Championship Game and he provided the official injury report.
Tight end Jeremy Shockey (knee) is questionable and sat out of practice for the third straight day. It’s the same story for cornerback Malcolm Jenkins with his hamstring injury.
Wide receiver Robert Meachem (ankle) practiced on a limited basis and is listed as probable. Payton sounded particularly optimistic about Meachem. Safety Darren Sharper also practiced on a limited basis and is listed as probable.
Defensive end Bobby McCray (back) and center Jonathan Goodwin (knee) each practiced fully and are listed as probable.
