IRVINE, Calif. — Third-year Saints receiver and 2023 special teams All-Pro Rashid Shaheed missed practice No. 18 at the team's training camp at UC-Irvine on Friday due to what head coach Dennis Allen described as a "toe or foot" issue.
The extent of the injury is unknown and there is no word on Shaheed's availability for the Saints' preseason game against the 49ers in San Francisco on Sunday.
In July, the Saints signed Shaheed to a one-year contract extension to remain with the team through the 2025 season.
The 25-year-old undrafted free agent who joined the Saints in 2022 had a banner season last year which also included his being named to the NFC Pro Bowl team for his special teams play as a return specialist.
Shaheed also recorded 46 receptions for 719 yards and five touchdowns in 2023.
Kickoff for Sunday's game is set for 7 p.m.
