Brees limited in practice again; Cooks expects to play Sunday

Drew Brees was once again limited during Thursday’s practice.

It is not known if Brees, who is dealing with a bruised rotator cuff, threw any passes during the session. He did not attempt a pass on Wednesday.

Before Thursday’s practice, Saints coach Sean Payton said he would not let Brees go until Sunday without attempting a pass.

“He wouldn’t go all the way to Sunday and then pregame is his first throws,” Payton said. “It’s a process that really starts with warming up and testing out how it feels, so we’ll see where it’s at.
