The New Orleans Saints placed receiver Michael Thomas and defensive end Marcus Davenport on the active\/physically unable to perform list Thursday. <\/p>\n

The team can activate the players back to the active roster at any point before the start of the regular season, but they can’t practice with the team until then.<\/p>\n

Thomas has played only seven games the past two seasons because of an ankle injury that required two surgeries. It kept him out all of the last season.<\/p>\n

The Saints are optimistic the medical staff will clear him sometime early in training camp.<\/p>\n

The three-time Pro Bowler, who did not participate in the team’s offseason program while rehabbing, has posted videos of himself running routes.<\/p>\n

Davenport is recovering from two surgeries on his right shoulder. He also had his left pinky finger partially amputated this offseason after an infection developed when a surgical plate broke. <\/p>\n

It is unclear which injury has landed him on the list. <\/p>\n

Davenport, who has played 48 of a possible 65 games in his career since the Saints made him the 14th overall selection, is entering the final year of his rookie contract.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
