From the video

Source video thumbnail
we got a, you know, practice video from the sidelines of him limping... Shawn Payeyton has come out and said it's just a strain and he should be back in practice in four or five days... if he's returning in four or five days while he's limping, I would just say, what's the point of returning that quickly? This seems like maybe it could be a multi-week thing

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Training camp strain may be multi-week; durability concerns linger.

Jaylen Waddle was spotted limping in practice video on August 6, with coach Sean Payton initially suggesting a four-to-five-day return timeline for a strain. However, the source expresses skepticism about this optimistic timeline, noting that if Waddle is limping upon return, it may indicate a multi-week injury. With four weeks until the season starts, the source wants to monitor closely as the season approaches, citing historical precedent (Darnell Mooney) that missing training camp is a significant setback. Waddle has a history of getting banged up mid-game, and durability concerns compound the injury risk. The source would not pick Waddle over Zay Flowers at this point due to the injury.
